This flight trip has hanged in the air as it wasn't clear if weather conditions will allow it. A few thunderstorms and rain showers have passed over Slovenija during the day, but it did clear up a bit as the evening was approaching. Western part of the country has remained cloudy, even with a few rain drops to be seen on return, but clouds had dispersed further to the east, and we were able to enjoy some flying in the evening sun. Conditions were not ideal for photography though; there was a lot of glare, and for the better part it remained cloudy and rather dark.
