17th January 2011 - Roldanillo, Colombia - Day2 - Morning [10:20]

Another early start today. The busses were loaded and away to the launch by 7:45 - the trip takes about 90 mins so they should all be there by now.

The sun is shining and there are large cumulus floating around the sky - they are moving quite quickly though so it may be fairly windy aloft.
