Welcome to Middle Earth

Second day today, yesterday saw us in the glider about an hour off the bus.

Took a bus from Queenstown at about 830 am and took the milk run throught the island up to Omarama. Saw the Subway with the best view in the world (Wanaka) and hit our first traffic jam... of sheep.

Pulled the bags off the bus and we were off, playing with gliders, doing walk arounds and checking out the random areas we will be making home in the next couple days.
After flying last night we headed to the pub for dinner about 7 or 8 and had a bite to eat.

Studied up on some new checks

(pre-takeoff)

money to the person who can figure that one out... HINT, they are BRAKES, not SPOILERS

as well as SUFB (pre landing) and HASEL (a bit different pre spin/spirla/stall)

here today at 9am, spent the morning learning the paperwork end of things and then did a flight this afternoon. Before the flying came the cleaning of the staff car, it's a Honda Shuttle, and it's our airport shuttle... hehehe... as well as learning to drive a quad and how to start the truck... trickier than it sounds. Also took a pic for the website and got all kitted out with our new Southern Saoring gear... pics I'm sure to follow!
The pics and bios should be up by the end of the weekend on the website...
