Looking back at some of the countries present at the INTERNATIONAL NIGHT.Unfortunately a few “hided” and I have no pictures from them.
If I do find them, I share them under these ones later.

Team Denmark ; made Risalamande, 8 liter, cherrysauce and port-wine to go with it. Very popular .
Very nice evening.

Team Germany ; with gluhwein and Christmas Cookies

Team South Africa; with South African Lamb Stew and South African wines.

Team Lithuania; looks as good “poison” “only” 43 % haha.

Team Czech Rep; They always have really good beer. USA team captain Pete tries it out.

Team USA; with Melissa, Leah and Sarah.
“Great comradery, food and drink. Team USA had bite sized pineapple teriyaki meatballs with rice, fruit skewers and Mai Tais.”

Team Belgium; with Dennis and Lux. mate Diana AND their FAMOUS Belgian waffles this time the recipe of Joëlle Litt’s family recipe.

And to finish this item words from Gliding Australia:
“From WGC Narromine , Sláinte agus saol agat, Na zdrowie, santé, saluti, prost, and in every other language, we wish you good health and good cheer and may there always be a thermal beneath you, a wave above you and a ridge to bring you home.“

Tomorrow it’s back to soaring again.
4 very special days as scores are close and you can be out before you know,….. BUT also high on the list.

UPDATES;
Team New Zealand; Team effort . Bernie and Derek sourced the materials , Bernie learned how to use a mixer and whipped the cream, Derek and myself chipped fruit and I decorated the top!
Wish I was there MY FAVORITE!!!!!Michael Strathern’s Gliding

Team Luxembourg; with a lovely and what I heard delicious drink.

Team UK; Monday 11th was declared a rest day late on Sunday evening due to high temperatures (ironically several degrees lower than the preceding few days), which meant the team had plenty of time to prepare for International Night.
Good fun was had by all!!!!

Team Italy; with real Italian food.

Team Switzerland with yesterday’s winning pilot Yves in good mood.

Team Poland;
