first day of climbing -- Kastri

Here's a somewhat mangled panorama (stitched on the phone) of the view from our room





We went to a new crag (to us) today, getting an early start to avoid the heat.  Actually, we were done climbing by like 11:00 AM.  Excellent pockets and orange limestone, and an auspicious start to our trip.  I flew the phantom a bit, did a perfect landing only to have a gust of wind blow it over into the gravel!  The blades were pretty dinged up, and just after I had meticulously balanced them.  Argh




It was a gentle start to the trip...  Bibou, Fata, Red Rooster and Principessa Giulia.  The last one is just beautiful.  

After getting provisions at the supermarket, we had an excellent dinner at Harry's
