Where to start?? Well yesterday after dinner we had a bit of pre-drinking before we went to the pub. Mulligens (I believe that was the name) was a cozy irish looking pub. Then I went of for the Holy cow. Which was a mainstream dance club. (A bit like the Hut on saterdays) It was fun, but not as good as home. So I left at 2. After a bit of sleep. (didn't got that much because people got in and out all night.) Ow and I didn't had a skydive yesterday because the weather was really bad. This morning after a try of sleeping, I gave up and got a shower. (pitchblack because the light was fallen out.) I had an apple because the kitchen got cleaned so I couldn't make a propper breakfast. I saw the weather and asked if I could perhaps skydive today. After a phone they told me I had 10 min before they would pick me up :s So I ran and got some stuff. After a lot of waiting and get ready they put me on the plane. We took off and went to 12.000 feet and minus 4 degrees. I had a tandem jump with a 45 sec free fall. (all I could think of was not to forget to breathe ;) It was amazing and actually undescrible. And best of all; I have a video!! So everybody can enjoy!! Stop for now and have a little time to enjoy my adrenaline a bit more... (Now you all can get jealous ;)

a skydive!!!! you are a very brave girl. really!!!! I don't think I would dare to make a skydive. to scary if you ask me. I'm very proud of you. :D
lots of hugzzz bianca
bianca @ October 12, 2004 12:34 PM@Bianca: it's probably not really scary, from what I've read in several books about skydiving it seems that the ground is so far away that you don't realize that it's quite deadly if your parachute won't work... Haven't had that experience though, not yet, but still one of the big things on my TODO list. Anyway, bungee jumping must be a *lot* scarier, just because the ground is quite close and you *know* that the only thing that seperates you from sudden death is the bungee cord...
