Arrival

So finally I am here, in Issoudun, France, the venue for the 2013 Women World championship. The journey was not without incidents, including the SatNav routing me through a busy Paris market lane At one point I was contemplating making a U turn among the stalls, however as it turns out, it was actually a short cut...

I  arrived at the cottage we rented (Gite in French) at 10 pm last night to find it closed and locked and the owners no where to be seen...waited until 11 then went back to the gliding club and spent the night in an empty caravan.

Today we are doing paper work and the likes, and being France there is a lot of paper work to do, including re-validating a perfectly valid medical certificates. At least the weather is bad so not losing any precious flying time.
