We were looking for a dynamic flight today. Looking for a valley where winds veer up in the afternoon, like near the Vinalopo Valley, near Villena.
And, we didn't even have to wait till late afternoon. Just arriving at 12.30, preparing and flying till 4.30. Nice, all up, soaring, clocking up airtime.
One of the better days at Villena.
Villena is on the highway to Madrid, and has a wonderful castle which you shouldn't miss. Also, a few kilometers further there is Bocairent, with its Arab Caves, you can crawl in and fantasize how it must have been hiding from the christians, and later in history vice versa. Also in Bocairent there is the only bullfight arena cut out in the mountain. No cement, no wood. Just a 'natural' aging old bull fight arena. There, that was your portion culture for the day.
Tomorrow we are supposed to have more autumn weather, more winds from north which will drop the temperature. Today it was still in the twenties. Not abnormal, but not every november is so warm, no complaints there, we just keep enjoying it.
