My repatriation to Spain in early March, however was timed to perfection (for a change). The dove has returned with the olive branch, the animals have left the arc two by two (“it was only a bloody month last time…someone open a window…!”…Noah) and normal service has been resumed, specked out for the first 10 straight days bar only 1.Almost fools you into thinking I knew what I was doing ,doesn’t it?. I am once again becoming familiar with many of the sites in the area and getting by with a little help from my friends…The local mountain here in Algodonales http://www.paraglidingearth.com/en-html/resultats_recherche.php pulls a breeze up in pretty well any wind direction as long as its light but is best in nil, s/e or s/w where it gets the sun all day. It also has a driveable north west launch, and a north east launch, but this is a 25 min walk. There is something for almost all wind directions when it picks up a little within 50km or so except a strong east which requires a 200km drive to Granada.The views over the flatlands from the sunrise and sunset launches include views of many of the other sites and they make excellent targets and markers for xc’s. With the town on two main roads on the compass points just follow one downwind. Lemon squeezy.
