Beautiful day. Above Doug and Julia with their brandnew Niviuk Takoo. Down below Willem carving in the air with his Sol Ellis.
Forecast was pretty bad, but we went for it and found a window at Col de Rates.
We climbed up to 350 meters above take off, touching clouds. Thermals were sweet, just like we love 'em.
In the end some humidity came in from the sea, so clouds got bigger and darker. Knowing it was just humidity (aint' it always ...), and no nasty clouds, everybody tried to get as close as possible to the fog.
For Rudy and Willem, first time out flying under clouds they said. Tomorrow more, here we go Alicante, oh gosh I am sensing some patriotism here, not a good sign.
