26-02-2006 Just came back from a week of parawaiting with Theo and Lizette, and Nick, Kath and Paco in Alicante, Espaņa. Too strong winds to fly, but at least I did 3 short flights in which I could do the remaining tasks for my club brevet: backwards starting. Anyway, if you ever want to do paragliding in Spain: go to Nick!
