Thanks Dudo for the info. I was in Elche, shopping, I was at the beach Playa de Pinet, having a drink. And winds were dying off. But had no idea how it was inland. Until Dudo let me know he was gonna head for Palomaret.

Later got a message that the sun was trying to burn off some cloud, so teasingly southerly breezes up the hill.

We choose for El Cid, a high take off, a spectacular view.

The road up is bad, but soon repairs will be needed to bring up the cars and 4x4's for maintenance. So hopefully local pilots were re-enjoy this fantastic site with its potential. We had a good taste today.
