The forecast was for rain most of the day. It didn’t materialise until 4pm but no matter, it was howling as well, so it’s not like we benefited from the dry weather. The plus side is that it snowed in the mountains and we’re hopeful that the ski resorts will open soon.

This is the worst autumn we’ve know for flying weather since we started coming here in 2003. The weather per se hasn’t been that bad, it’s just been too windy, or our work days have coincided with the flyable days. We’ve never had so few hours airtime in October/November. At the moment December doesn’t look too promising, but we’ll see. I’m still hopeful for Christmas day on the beach.
