Great ending to a great week!

Mr. Lee made a deal with Thomas and I that if we were able to land the airplane 3 times in a row with zero help, we would be allowed to go tandem skydiving (if our parents gave the okay).  Thomas and I were able to do so.

Skydiving was easily one of my favorite experiences on the trip (other than getting close to everyone on the trip and getting to fly planes).  The experience of jumping out of a plane is strange.  I was scared, excited, nervous, and pumped up all at the same time.  Jumping out of the plane is counter-intuitive; however, I highly recommend the experience.  Even though I am not scared of heights or adventurous activities, I still pushed my own limits and discovered something new about myself.  Jumping with a friend (Thomas) made the entire experience that much better.  Hopefully I will get to go skydiving again and learn how to jump solo!!!



Here is the video of me jumping: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NTJAy17OOOs
