more :-))

Can it get better than yesterday? - YES: stronger thermals, higher cloud base :-))  


Already the first thermal brought me up to 3500m (that's a climb of 1250m in about 10 minutes)...
I just 'cruised' around at cloud base enjoying the scenery. I think that by extending the flight a little longer it might have been possible to reach 4000m, as base was steadily rising.

(above Langkofel, looking East) Grödnerjoch, Sella, Piz Boè, Marmolada
Piz Boè
Marmolada
500m above Marmolada
Marmolada, Pelmo
Rodella, Langkofel (Sasso Lungo)

But after 2 hours 'nature' was calling and it was getting a little cold flying always above 3000 as well...
Let's see what tomorrow will bring: I'm hoping for another flight before my drive back home.
