Friday: Playa Quemada

The fcst for today/ the next few days is calling for stronger winds (Calima?) :-( 

Therefore we left our finca 'unusually early' (just after 0900) and drove to Playa Quemada. Andy and I have been airborne shortly after 1000 and could enjoy nice soaring conditions. For me it most probably has been the best reverse launch so far on this trip: only 1 attempt to get airborne :-))   Landing after a bit more than an hour. Unfortunately Hartmut had to land on the beach below...


Driving back to our Finca the Calima (= a dust wind originating in the Sahara) became more prominent: more wind and less visibility (haze); so this may well have been our last flight here on Lanzarote (ACE)...
