Arrived and floated around





We arrived yesterday evening after a relaxing drive in zwitserland. The whole surrounding, type of villages and hotels give more the feeling of going on wintersport then to a sailing regatta. Although we got today enough of watersports but that had more to do with the rain then anything else... If there is sunshine at silvaplana there is wind, due to the thermal effect. So with rain no wind as you can see on the picture which i took around late lunch time..




In spite of this there came a little bit of wind in the late afternoon and for 45 minutes boats where foiling. Constantijn and i also made it out. Hereby we experienced the almost freezing fresh mountain water which makes launching a moth an unpleasant affaire. But sailing on this extremely clear water is a joy.
In spite of the fact that i came out too late and that the wind dropped i was happy that I have been out and enjoyed the lake.
Hopefully tomorrow brings better wind.....
