So our last day in Hampshire and still the wind blows even if it was abit lighter than yesterday :( but the sun was out which made up for it !!! It was a funny day being a 3 star session early as I strugged with the strong tide and lighter wind but 5 stars later on as the tide eased and the breeze increased !!! Rob had a ball in the flat water the far side of the bar in the lagoon but I was having trouble staying upwind in the up and down winds and strong tide.Rob was enjoying showing off to the crowd on the bar and was neary getting his double loops !!!! I gave up after a couple of hours and walked back to the van for refreshments and the help Rob with his gear-kite caddy now !!! Then as the wind freshened and the tide eased I did the Beaulieu river thing again all be it not so fast as yesterday as the wind was lighter and the solent more choppy.A great weekend nevertheless and I just love Lepe it's a fantastic place tp sail :)
