Banner above, the windspeed still 41 km p/hour at the coast, and this at the time I am writing this. Very very strong at take off at the cliffs, all day. Gusting to 50 km per hour at times.

But !

Inland clouds were forming by the very humid air coming in from the see. These clouds could block the wind, so we could probably fly on the leesides of them.
So we did.

This photo shows we could play ! The warm valley gave off its air and all was rising to the forming clouds. Great fun in smooth conditions. As Bob said, amazing with this conditions at the coast so nearby (only 15 k crowflight), stress flying.

This was about local knowledge of the meteo and the sites. And of course with a little help from our friends, fellow local pilots. Hasta maƱana !
