sheeps on the street in morning when i went from clearwater lake to nelson.
this friday i did some fine kitesurflession with wiebke in nelson. nice windy weather - i prefer now more the north kite than the Capirinha kite. the north kite is more direct. capirinha is for rokies ;)) i hope i can try tommorrow my first jump.

The spirit of the mountains calls one unceasingly and bids one to understand.
Those to whose spirit it has spoken can never more be sundered from it though seas and other lands lie between, for they bear the memory of it about in their hearts continually, as if it were a new strength.
(Peter Graham, New Zealand Mountain Guide 1878-1961)
