Gliding Practice

You asked about flying, so I had to find a way to get airborne! After slipping past the exit door, I found an outdoor concrete landing with a light breeze. On the ground lay a clean, folded paper coffee cup sleeve. I climbed onto the wide metal railing, bent my knees, and leaped with all my might into the air while holding the cardboard sleeve spread open above my head! I didn't soar into the clouds, but I caught an upward gust and floated across the entire landing before tumbling into a neat, three-point roll onto a dry leaf pile. Flying takes practice, but I definitely caught some air!
