| Conwy River and the Welsh Riviera |
With a forecast of fairly light winds but good thermals and a high
cloudbase again, after yesterdays declared task which pretty much
defines where you go, we decided to go where the energy(and fancy) took
us today and take in the views. And what views they were! Again it was
almost possible to see most of Wales from the 6000' cloudbase that we enjoyed in the afternoon. A wander of around 150km going to Conwy, Llanrwst
and as far South as Lake Vyrnwy(one of our turnpoints yesterday too).
Matt M5 did try to get to Snowdon again in a moment of mountain madness
but it was being rained on at the time. After many hours of soaring it was time to land so Martin could de-rig and set off on the drive home, prior commitments meant he had to fore-sake tomorrow's promise of a
more Westerly blow and the beckoning of some ridge running!
