Valencia Sailing is in Kuala Terengganu for the Monsoon Cup

Greetings from Kuala Terengganu, the venue of the Monsoon Cup. I arrived a couple of hours ago direct from Valencia, right in time for the day's practice races. As the name of the event implies, we are right in the monsoon period and the weather pattern so far this Tuesday morning and early afternoon is typical for this time of the year. Rain, and lots of it.

I'm off to the water to follow the races. The photos as well as interviews will be online on Tuesday evening local time (7 hours ahead of Valencia).
