Lines done but no Flying

Today started off by looking really nice but we were told the winds were high on launch. After waiting around we finally decided to head up. Its 7 euros per ride so about the same as at home. We got out at launch and watched as various pilots dragged and crashed themselves all over launch to the jeering and laughing of all us happily watching. We waited around and came back down. So I now sit in an airconditoned bar in the hotel drinking a lemon cocacola and watching the tour de france live. This is GREAT. the spanish announcers make it seem like the stanley cup final at every turn and there is still over 100kms to go in the race. The bar patrons are cheering and screaming at the TV.

So far I have discovered a love for this country with the exception of two things with one being its expensive and the other is actually an extreme lack of vegetables with dinner. See ya tomorrow.
