Day 8

Winds just kept increasing during the day yesterday and in the end all classes were cancelled. Smart decision. We also had showers during the whole day. It was nice to get a day off. We had nice lunch with a glass of wine in the Art Gallery and basically spent the day doing nothing, which is really good every now and then.

changing covers to prepare for showers

hmmm...something is different here

lucky him

gliders tied down tightly

We are now waiting for today's morning briefing and it's sure we will be flying. Winds on the ground are light but we can see that the Cu's popping already are moving very quickly in the northerly direction - so winds up there are really strong again. It's gonna be a challenge for us in these little and light gliders. Interesting what the task setters have for us. Both gliders are prepared and ready for gridding ;-)
