Flying in the cool breeze of the sea. Above the mediterranean. Today tandems with MadrileƱos, having a first go in the sky. Nice, landing at the beach near the chiringuito, beach bar.

A foto taken from the urbanisation of Olivo de Oro, some of them hate us some of the love us.

Another foto taken from the house of someone who really wants us to stop flying. Today he asked me silly question if I had a license, and if I had insurance. Of course I don't !

Meanwhile waiting for the verdict if they will have to open up the road so we have access again to the most known soaring site in Spain.

Conditions were great. Winds were off to the south, so scratching at first, but then getting reasonable heights with the coastal thermals, for spirals an wingovers. Letting the passengers scream, but always bearing in mind, you are flying for them. They have to have the time of their life.

Inland as well flying, but preferred to stay at the coast and avoid the thermalling, rough conditions of the day most probably inland.
Temperatures will rise up in the upper 30's from tomorrow onwards. That could mean, stability, inversion, only flying couple of 100 meters above our tops. Where it is a bit cooler than anywhere else. Shorts and T-shirts.
