PG Worlds Day 5

Date: 28th February 2007

The thunderstorms started boiling about 7:00 a.m., and the first light rain just drove us under the awning at 9:15. The forecast is for improved weather starting tomorrow, we’ll see. It’s pretty cool to watch the landscape around here green up–after the worst drought in a century the rain is certainly needed. It definitely feels more like northern California here this morning than the blazing hot Oz we’ve come to love… We snuck a task in two days ago when I was sure we wouldn’t get one so anything is possible, but it doesn’t look good.

A friend of mine wrote and said that I should ignore the politics at the Worlds, the politics just get in the way of a good time. He’s right. Individually, most people in paragliding are really good people. But somehow it tends to get sideways a lot at competitions–I’m going to just ignore the politics.

Looks like a full slate of running, training on the local swing set and work today…
