The only way is up

FESTY is back, Kirby Park Irish Jester

I have a confession to make. For the first time in my life I booked my flights incorrectly. Not the wrong time or day but the completely wrong week. My original booking which was a bargain at $120 return to Adelaide (normally about $400) was for last weekend. I am not sure what was on in Adelaide last weekend but I do know that the three day event is this weekend. I changed my flights in time but it cost me an extra $350. Not much of a bargain anymore.

My flight was at 6.45am so I stayed at mums only 1/2 an hour from the airport, set two alarms and even went to bed early, I awoke, by chance 1/2 an hour after my alarms were set, neither woke me, WHAT THE?? Normally I wake hours early. I made it to the airport on time though a little frazzled and was unkind to someone who was dawdling in the check-in queue, my apologies.

A trot report is coming soon and the two star dressage started on Thursday also.  I have walked the cross-country and I tested out the latest beta version of the CourseWalk app which allows you to export a full course, including track, minute markers, fence pics the lot–the aim is for you to share a course with your friends.  More on that later.

Let’s hope for all our sake that the blogging app I use on my iPad hangs in there, it has been playing up for weeks, a fix is promised but not yet forthcoming, if I have to resort to lugging my Netbook I may just lose it again. So please EN pray to the gods of BlogPress for me.

The fence by fence is below.  It is classic Adelaide with lots of narrow tracks winding through the parks, big fences and it is HOT!


Obviously I missed fence 10

Yours in Eventing,
