Kt goes Skydiving, Sally brings biscuits.
Yup, I did it, I went skydiving!! After waiting one and a half days for the right weather I went up in the smallest of small planes with three other nutters and jumped on out at 15000 feet!! (the other wusses got out at 12000, but I figured if you're gonna do it, you may as well go all the way). It was an experience and a half I can tell you. The feeling is totally undescribable. There was a freefall of 10000 feet which lasted a minute, and that was pretty intense, and then out came the parachute and a gentle float to the ground whilst admiring the stunning scenery of Lake Taupo and the surrounding hills and mountains. I have a dvd of the whole thing (with soundtrack - Top Gun theme to start of course!!)to remember my experience, and some photos too. (I forgot the cd with the photos - I'll be adding them later). So yeah. That's what I did yesterday, and it was good. Kt.xx

I wait to see video footage before I believe you.... not for the first time, you have shocked me. Never in a million years would I have said that you would have jumped... or were u pushed?

I have no excuse NOT to, right? Well done, you--I'll be getting there at some point, too.
I love reading your adventures--so entertaining!
