Saturday 25/10
    After stormy Friday night is festival life wakening up very slowly in the morning. The organizer's desks with computers are before nine still covered with big cover and the entire beach is completely empty.



    The sky is from the dawn lovely clearly blue, but there are not any canopies at all. There is a wind of 10m/s on the range and only the bravest ones are getting up there. The boys from SKY Paragliders are going as well and they are taking a Turkish woman representative in parachute jump Meryem Akar with them. In about two hour's time is a heavily loaded tandem flying above the beach - Petr Haladej is a pilot, Tomas Lednik is branching off from the tow after a while, opening his canopy and in another minute Meryem Akar is jumping down as well.





    "I am not surprised anymore that they have won the war" says after landing on the beach Czech hanggliding pilot Cestmir Guntter, commenting furious effort of few Russian paragliding pilots to get the bravest one from the launch up to the air in a rather strong wind. But on the coast is quite peace, the wind is barely 3m/s , blowing in the direction from the sea to the land and so there are five motor paragliding pilots flying above the sea.

    The weather is enormously hot and the thermometer shows 29°C in the shadow again. About two o'clock pm pilots are starting to fly from the lowest launch in the altitude of 800m but after flying in above the beach they reached such a goddam height that it is not possible to make any acrobatic elements at all.

    At 2.30 pm is the acrobatic discipline cancelled and Mike Kung is in half an hour deciding to use a motor hang glider to take him up to some serious height in order to show the open mouthed audience something extraordinary.





    The evening is verging and it's getting dark quickly. On the edge of the stony path are Turkish women making big round cakes and from the nearby little mobile stall we can smell grilled corn cobs. The little shops have got shining windows, the temperature in the street is descending and people are going round the shops.



    And as tomorrow it's the last day of this year's festival, there will be a big party going on this evening - and due to the change of clock it may be even longer. Unfortunately I haven't got any more comments, because Vilma took my pencil ...
