Marina

A few weeks ago, I forgot my cellphone at home. I was a bit late for work and left it on the charger. During the week I had a looks at the pictures and realized,'someone' played with with the thing while I was at work. Never the less, here is a nice pic of Marina which her friend Anke took while playing.(They took other 'less good' pictures too,until the phone run out of memory.)

More Golden2 pics :-)

Here are a few more pictures of my Golden2, a friend of mine took yesterday while I ridge-soared at Rondebosch in very light conditions. What a pity, after only 25min I had to land because my evening shift was begining.For a change he used his digital camera and not a cellphone.I did resized them on the computer and transfered a few to my Nokia N70 from where I've uploaded them to the blog.
And yes,this is the first time when I upload more then one picture.

Mario & the Golden2

I can't remember if I have already posted a pic of my 'new' baby. Anyway, a few days ago I come across this one. Yes it is a bit old (the pic) but who cares :-) In theory,there is no difference between 'theory and practice' but in practice it is - this wing has done more for my mental sanity/stress release, then all my other hobbies combined.

Naughty boy -

How is that for a change.I've been a bit sick the last few days (a cold) and did not go to work. Today I feel much better and my son tried his best to get me out of the bed to go paragliding with him on a nearby hill. He regularely watches all my paragliding DVD's, over and over again - now that's what I call, dedication to the sport :-) I wished his mother shared the same feeling.

99 Air Balloones

While on my short vacation I went to see my friend Kobus in Bethleem (South Africa). Because of the favorable geographical location (1500m + above see level) and mild wind, every year the aeronauts have a competition. I missed the comp but I still enjoyed nice views like this one during the pre competition training.

Marina & Michael

This pic was taken with my Nokia N73 just before it broke.
Michael and Marina enjoying the last few hours in Bethleem. Reflecting back on my 8-day vacation, I can only say one thing for sure - it was veeery nice but a bit stressfull. 9km short of 4000km in such a short periode and with 3 kids 'on board' aged between 3 and 8 years, was a tiny bit too much though. Never the less, it was veeery nice :-)
