 chicco and conchelloOld friends Stan ( from Dubai) , Chico and Consuelo ( from Italy)  Dag ( from Norway) are back at Native Place for the festive season.  Sammy whom we met in Moustiers Ste Marie France last year is visiting us too.  To add to the excitement  Piku  who has been rarely seen over the last year landed up two weekneds in a row!  Steve arrived from  Goa, and Rinul, Rishabh, Saurin, Graem, Harsh came in from Mumbai, Pune and Rajasthan for their CP courses. Dwane and Dylan will make it for New Year. The festive season is going to be very entertaining with the entire gang  zoning in  at Native Place.The highlights of the weekend for me was sleeping in late, a leasurly morning enjoing the flowers and  birds in the garden, nice afternoon flying at Tower Hill and full on yoga sessions  followed by dinner on the terrace under a star studded December sky.Peace Bliss & Happy Landings Astrid Rao Nirvana Adventures

By the time I got back to Kamshet on the weekend their status had elevated from students to pilots and it was great to hear them report about duration flights and new experiences. Courses complete they continued to stay on at Native Place to enjoy the weekend celebrations  with all of us.All in all it was a happy week and one could feel the good vibes and energy of  the fab flying and happy pilots in the house.  There was no flying for me that weeknd -  I had 33 kids  from Beacon High Mumbai to do a  Sharing Nature Weekend with at Native Place Peace Bliss & Happy Landings Astrid Rao Nirvana Adventures
