We were a little disappointed, but at least this would give us time to check out the accommodation for the women&#8217;s comp. By the time we had breakfast and checked email etc. it had settled and the conditions seemed ok, if a little east.<\/p>\n<p>I wanted to fly the Vega II again in more bumpy conditions so we got to the top for 12 noon. Since I was stealing Mark&#8217;s glider he was left to drive and kindly sacrificed his flying for my benefit. Geoff was wind dummy so I could make sure I would get more than a top to bottom. I needen&#8217;t have worried &#8211; it was very thermic. With it being east it was again advisable to head out to the lower ridge and I did so. It was bumpy in places, but the wing behaved impeccably, even flying close to the monastery gully and along the rocks I couldn&#8217;t get it to tuck more than a tiny bit of tip. Forty-five minutes into the flight the glider was sold.<\/p>\n<p>After lunch we looked at some lovely flats and then had another evening flight. It&#8217;s been a lovely two days &#8211; four flights, accommodation sorted, good company and more nice food to look forward to tonight. And it may be a double celebration in the bar&#8230; if the local Irish guys are there and if Barca win tonight.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.judithmole.net\/photo_galls\/170310\/index.html\" target=\"_blank\">See photos of today.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We woke up today to find it windy!
