Wow... This vacation is off to a great start! Michel and I spent 2 hours flying in a combination of dynamic and thermal conditions in the late afternoon and we both top landed next to the hostel: mine took a little more work because I couldn't make it down, but I finally managed under Richi's guidance on the radio.  =)  I flew up to the clouds twice and above the houses and farms along the ridge next to all the pilots staying here... I even shot a 45 minute in-flight video which would have been longer if I had a fully charged battery. A great day indeed!
