Algo day 2

Students launch before the thermals get going

Gay looks relieved after her first real taste of thermalling a Paraglider
"the problem is not going up but..."

After a hard day there are some serious decisions to be made.

Bright sunshine again and with a NW forecast we headed 20k south to check out another hill known as Ronda Vieja. Very nice to, on arrival we met up with Dean Crosby and his students who were just finishing off their morning flights. With conditions starting to get more lively Paul was first off the classic launch but failed to contact anything good. Kaz was off next and had a nice flight bobbing up and down in light thermals before checking out the bottom landing. Gay got off last and hit it just right going straight up and enjoying 4o minutes or more most of which was spent trying to keep herself down as the left was everywhere. Having picked everyone up it was back to the top for lunch where Paul his sausage!
It was also working at Lejar and Tebe and a steady stream of gliders appeared flying south from the former. Kaz and myself had a cracking evening flight in super lift cruising the slopes whilst watching a student getting sucked up and putting his first go at Big Ears to good use.
Then it was back to home for a lovely salad then off to the bar to up date the blog. Great that done it must be time for another beer... wonder what tomorrow will bring.
