Friday, morning flying till too strong, till overdevelopment crawling in from over the back,. (from the Pyrenees so).
Went swimming in the lake to cool down. Siesta, and last minute flying over the valley of
Ager, landing at the camping near the village.
Excellent week, flying EVERY day. It doesnt' get much better !

Last day of roadtrip before airport transfers. We are in Barcelona, visiting the famous city. Before heading back home.
Foto's will be on the blog soon, check it out.

We had fantastic weather. Every site had its own tricky bits, we were informed by local pilots who I contacted before. They were all very helpfull and welcoming.
We stayed in budget hotels, guest houses, ha breakfast together and planned they day. Every afternoon there as need for a little siesta, because the flying, the sun, the heat tired us out. After the siesta there was loads of time to get back on the hill, join the locals and fly again. Many days for hours !
There was no plan for XC, there was a plan for lots of flying in safe way on different sites. And we succeeded, to fly two days at the three sites we planned. Berga, Organya and last Ager.

This was the first time I organised this roadtrip, and it was a succes all over. Next year same time, you are invited to join us as well. Let me know your email address etc... if interested, ok ?


Well off to the Ramblas again in Barcelona, street animation etc... . Funny enough you hear more foreign languages than Spanish on the street nowadays.
But off the tourist track you still find the good old man's bar, where chilled vino tinto is served and a good tapa at reasonable price as well.

Soon foto's from all of us, a top ten of foto's which will give you an idea how much fun we had.
