Skydiving!

Yesterday was crazy! I ended up doing my jump, and then after I had been home for ages (Note: 11pm!) Peter and I went for a drive in his truck.

Nothing strange about that... excpet that it is a manual and I have NEVER driven a manual before in my life. I did really well, and apparently I have a knack for it. I didnt bunny hop, but I did stall it a few times. I keep forgetting that I have to take my foot off the alcelator to push in the clutch.

Anyway... My jump is crazy to explain. I did a flip in the air. a full 180 while FREE FALLING 14,000 feet in the air.

This is my favourite picture from the day:



AND I even got a video. It took us ages, but we managed to get it from the CD onto youtube. Its here:

WOW. If Sean hadn't already passed out on the couch I would show him what he is in for when he jumps in a few weeks.

After dinner entertainment in our house - let's watch Ash jump from a plane! The kids loved it, Sean looked a little green and I wish I had the guts to do it. The kids were a little perplexed watching you backflip back up in to the plane - they might not actually know gravity by name but they knew something strange was happening!
