Ready for Off

Last stop in Norway - Thorbjørn's cabin at Riksgransen
Norway was great, the weather was kind, things were cheaper than we expected and we got all the photos we needed - the drone was a massive help with that job. I actually managed to crash it for the first time, clipping the tip of tree on the way into land. It was a spectacular tumble through the tree and down a rubble bank. Fortunately damage was pretty minimal - a split blade and a couple of scuffs - though my ego took more of a battering.

Then it was a three plane hop back to the UK to get ready for our upcoming trip to France and make use of our 180 day visa.

Back to the Peak - at least it isn't raining - for now
I actually went climbing with Colin after a break of 67 days which may never have happened in the past 50+ years. Of course it was hard work, but there is still a glow in the embers of enthusiasm - let's see what France brings
