Central Plateau 2010

New Zealand,   October 30, 2010 – November 6, 2010

30 October - Practice Day

Looking out of the window it's actually quite nice out there. Unfortunately listening to the breeze spill through the cracks in the window kind of spoils the effect.

There's blue sky with some cloud activty, a forecast cloudbase of 5'500 ish and it's all quite promising, but its blowing about 20 to 25kts easterly which is never a good wind direction for Taupo. We were hoping for the wind to drop but it doesnt seem to be happening yet.

No task has been set and today is a free practice day.
