Day 2
What a cold night! Is this Florida or deepest Wales? The weather is a bit freaky this year. We awoke to fresh coffee, blue skies, the blue lagoon and an egg shower.
We have the briefing with Davis and Steve Larsen who lives on site with his wife. It looks like a good day for getting back to The Ridge so a 73km task is called via 3 turn points. It is a little weak to start but we all get up and fly in lots of circles and do lots of little glides and you know what? We get 5 brits in the top 10 again and all in goal! Can it last?? Naa, this is hang gliding and a lot of what happens is down to a roll of the dice.

An easy day for Sue and George McD today. There is a great pool for the sprogs to play in while the adolescents try play superman . The sprogs would often disappear into the orange groves and pick fresh pink grapefruit that had been left from the harvest and then try and sell it to us! Teach em youngJ Free trade-POWER TO THE PEOPLE!!
Dinner was at the Gator Bait but no karaoke tonight just worn out Brits disagreeing on track deviation, cross wind component and 3 arrows! 3 arrows being the optimum direction to fly on a Flytec or Brauniger. The less educated of us were correct of course.
