Best in flight pic of myself :-)
While flying between Kabeljous lagoon and Gamtoos river mouth, Bastjan (fellow pilot) took this stunning pic with his cell phone! Believe it or not, this is one of a handful of pics I have of myself paramotoring. Tx Bastjan, it was a pleasure flying with you.

A few pics from my last flight to Gamtoos river mouth
Bastjan (now a friend of mine) came down to the coast for a visit. After a few cell phone messages, we linked up and went for two nice flights around Jeffrey's Bay.
(All this pics are Geotagged - in case you know what that is and want to see in GoogleEarth where exactly I did take them.)
Flying back to Kabeljous from Gamtoos mouth.
See, dunes and Bastjan :-)
At Gamtoos mouth (just behind me) and looking at horses on the beach.
I and Bastjan packing up. What a day.

My first Paramotor flight . . . after a long break.
Yesterday I went to the Kabeljous lagoon, to fly with my paramotor. I use to fly it fairly regularly, until I had a smallish stroke about 7 months ago and got grounded :-(
This time around I had a flight plan and sticked to it. Usually I fly without a flight plan (bad habit). I took of and flew down the beach in a Southerly direction until I arrived in St.Francis Bay where I took a few shots of the recently burned houses. Then I flew back to Kabeljous for a nice landing. A 40 Km round trip. It was a bit turbulent but not enough to spoil the day :-)
Do you notice the fire damage? Somewhere on this blog is a earlier picture of the same location. If I stumble upon it i will post it again for comparison. What a sad image :-(

Kwagga dam outing.
What to do on a Saturday? I for one, ended up at our local dam where we had a nice barbeque with a few friends. What a day.
On the way to the dam wall.
