First flights off Lijar and the gang spread out over the valley

Kaz floats by as the sky gets busy
Age before beautyWell that's what Bill said but it is the third time he has said it in the last 5 days! We had a cracking time flying off the SE side of Lijar first with the guys getting up to 6'500' asl (over 3000' ato) and staying airborne for up to nearly 3 hours. Bill took the honours managing to control his bladder the whole time but causing a minor flood alert after landing.
Michelle and Graham K both had super thermal flights and landing with big grins and no motion sickness. Tony P popped his thermal cherry and was soon well above launch mixing it with the best of them. In fact we got the whole group off nicely and whats more they all landed near each other so making an easy trip to the bar for lunch whilst we waited for Michelle and Bill to finally come down.
After a bite to eat we headed off to Ronda la v where it was nicely soarable and those that wanted got up and away again with Michelle and Kaz leading the way. Although a little busy the regular evening valley lift gave some nice height so allowing gliders to spread out. A few top landed and the others took the bottom option as the sunset and the lift disappeared. Ray did a kind of in between thing giving me some exercise!
A first class day all round rounded off with a 70's Halloween fancy dress party, there will be no pictures of me in a dress!!!!!
