Flying at last

Both of us woke up this morning at about 0500 with our bodies trying to tell is it was late in the afternoon and only lazy people are still in bed. There were a few jobs to do on the glider; installing loggers etc. Eventually we deemed it fit to fly, about the same time the airfield shuts down for an hour every Sunday because there is a church off the end of the runway and we mustn't disturb them. Eventually we got in the air. The day was a bit overdeveloped and visibility was pretty awful. Mostly it looked like this:

Never really got into the high parts as they were cloud covered, but still had a nice 3hrs learning the area. My oxygen bottle is still somewhere in the Qantas/Lan Chile luggage system but everything else is going OK.
