Regret

"Never regret. If it's good, it's wonderful. If it's bad, it's experience." -Victoria Holt

As I was surfing around the web, getting caught up on the latest happenings, I meandered into despair.com; a demotivational, tongue-in-cheek website for the pessimist in all of us. I'm sure many of you have seen their spin on the pretty picture with inspirational quote below it. Flytec did something similar a couple years ago with their "Victory" ad.
Well, when I saw this clip I had to paste one together myself...

The Sun Sets in Valle

My trip has come to an end and as I write this I'm already settling back into the reality of the cool, moist Northwest. It's been a great week of competition and free flying with incredibly consistent weather for hang gliding. What a pleasure it has been flying here; thanks to Jeff and the crew at FlyMexico, everything went smoothly and without hassle, from the transportation to the flying to the extracurricular (i.e. non flying) activities, FlyMexico handled it all. I'm definitely looking forward to returning in the years to come. Carrie wants to go too, now that she's seen that Valle has lots to offer beyond flying. Pretty unique place all in all and as far as taking a flying vacation to a foreign country it's hard to get more bang for the buck anywhere else.
