My friends Yosh and Mayumi have arrived in Australia and are hanging around between Sydney and Canberra for the next five or so weeks before jumping off to other parts of Australia before 12 months working in New Zealand.
Both are from Saga in Japan and Yosh has been crewing for me in Saga and Motegi for the past few years. Mayumi is a balloon pilot and did her training here in Australia and was crewing with Andrews team in the 2006 Worlds in Motegi.
Unfortunately sunny Sydney is not living up to its name but I am sure they will get some good weather soon enough.
We have lots of flying planned over the coming weeks as Yosh is keen to get his license which will be fun.
