We are in Beni Mellal now after one weekend in Marrakesh. Big story and we will tell later (we have a lot of pictures and video). Here in Beni it is raining and windy, it is really cold for the season. The roads here is like rivers and tomorrow morning still raining, then it will clear up. We hope for jumping tomorrow or latest day after :-)

We are training very well lately; we want to be fit for upcoming flying and jumping season. Actually we need certain muscles to be strong for these activities.

Speaking of jumping...Saturday morning we leave for Morocco for almost one week to skydive! This weekend we will stay in Marrakesh and celebrate Valentines Day! Joohoo. :-)


News: I have a profile on gmail for to follow me here.

We had lovely days in Monaco last weekend ! It is only 5 hours one way, but we felt arriving to another planet. It was about 15 degrees more in Monaco compare to Swiss. It was green trees, flowers, full season for lemons and mandarins. Great colors!
We flew from Mt Gros Saturday, but HEY... they have an amazing shuttle here is a brand new 24 seated bus! And they didn’t even wait for filling up the bus; we went up to take off only 4 pilots!!! This never happens in Swiss!!!! And best part, they only wanted 1 Euro for the trip. We were shocked. Phuff, what a luxurious place. The buss does 4 shuttles per day; 2 before midday and 2 after. The wind on the take off came from the East and in altitude from the North, not very optimal conditions. But we were there in right moment, we had excellent thermals. We flew until our fingers were blue (totally frozen). We both flew our new harnesses Kamasutra II, Alain with Kocon and me without. The Harness is very comfortable and suits me perfectly. The only thing it was harder to turn in the thermals, I did more flat turns than my old Sup’air harness. With my old harness I could really bank into the turn...hmmm, I guess I must get use with Kamasutra. Sunday we were blown away, so we stayed on the beach before we return back home.

Sweet escape!

BTW, we decided to do Chabre Open...

Wonderful, we decided to leave this afternoon for France to paraglide! We are tired of Swiss weather; snow/rain, grey and cloudy. South of France scheduling much better weather, even good thermals!!!


During this weekend, we have to decide if we are going to Chabre Open or not...Today we both got confirmation email that we can participate. Chabre Open ??? ....or ... Nordic Open ??? hmmm?

We will see Mamma Mia today!!! I really look forward to see this musical - maybe they will sing "Dancing Queen" or "Take a chance on me"?

it is my birthday present :-) jiiipyyyy
