Au Revoir


All done.

Funny old last day. I led the pack for a fair while, when there were thermals. Then heavy cirrus came over and killed all that. The whole pack came to a screeching halt while people figured out how to do the last 75km in marginal ridge lift. All a bit too technical for me but I eventually worked it out.

XM is safely back in her box. Not a scratch on her, she still looks brand new. Marta and Ziggy. thanks so much for leaving her here for me to fly. She is an absolute beauty.


Today we start wandering back to Poppenhausen. After the party last night it will be a bit of a late start. We'll be sad to leave; we've had the most awesomely good time imagineable.

Graham.
