With Hanka we were checking the pictures and we´d started to dream about our experiences during that last 18 days, spending together with a great group of the czech pilots. Let’s start from the beginning, after a long time of preparation, the trip to South Africa started to look more real..

South Africa Trip

That was a real teleport : „Turkish Airlines is number one!“ Sounds from the Jarda´s mouth, who is smiling since the fourth whiskey. At the airport in Cape Town we had a mild temperature shock. Martin our guide, picked up us and directly took us through the surroundings so fast that we saw all the ostriches and camels totaly blurred. Just in front of the closed gate of God Hope we had recognized, why's the rush …

Now we have 14 days of holidays! The start point was Hermanus. Because of the strong wind, we had to enjoy a day in plague, in small tour to the Vinery, and first dinner with real great Steaks. On the way along the south coast we couldn’t miss the south’s point, divorce India and Atlantic Ocean. Next few beautifull days we spent in Wilderness with many opportunities to fly and enjoy time on the coast. Could you imagine flying along 10 km long ridge, where you can start 15 m above ocean and finished with 350 m? During flight in shorts or swimming dress you could see dolphins, great beach and nice view to all bays. Just a realy good sun protection is very important. Red club is feeling with many members from our group.

After visiting old forest in Knysna we went to Ado Elephant park with so many wild animals. Next few days we were flying in different sites around, living just close to the beach in our flying friend house, enjoying see food, ostrich and beef steaks and drinking their excellent vine…

Last part we moved on famous Africans Route 62, through mountains, visiting hot spa with a lot of attractions, finishing in Porterville. This place is famous because of the possibility to fly long distances and many competitions were organized here. So we wanted to try these very strong thermal conditions with strong wind. Not so easy, for us was enough to spent in the air very long and interesting 2 hours. In the mening we were just relaxing in our nice easy accommodation, just bellow the long ridge, or in waterfall or in Vine taste. The trip is finished, but we are full of experiences, happy, brown, charged our batteries and with good mood we are coming back to reality, to the total frozen and snow covered Europe…See you next year, cause be sure we are gonna to prepare another sunny expedition in wintertime…

Pěkný, pěkný, pěkný, sluníčko, teplíčko, pohodoví lidé. Podle toho co čtu, jednou tam budu muset jet s Vámi. Ale i tady uprostřed zmrzlé Evropy jsme si užívali, je tu spousta krásného sněhu.
