Busy few weeks...

The last couple of weeks has seen the girlfriend come out to visit with her brother, and due to the recent "cull" of students on the katanas there have been lots of slots to take on the aircraft which has resulted in two flights a day most days weather permitting. I'm now more or less (bar low flying which needs a decent wind to demonstrate some visual illusions) at the cross country navigation flights stage where flying gets a whole lot more difficult.... hopefully I'll be okay at it!
On the less intimidating side of things, I've been doing lots of solo flights lately and here are a few choice pics:




Anyway, on the non flying side of things I've done lots of things the last couple of weeks with charlotte including going to Raglan, Tauranga, Hamilton Zoo (who knew hamilton had such a good zoo!?), Hamilton gardens, Rotorua and even horse riding.... a few random pics from the activities follow to brighten up your day:

A nice dog from hoss riding:



Hamilton Zoo's pensive chimp:


Loads more pics, but so little space.... Anyway I hope all is well on the other side of the planet and hopefully by the time I post again I'll be well into my Nav Flights!
