Sky Diving

One day a few people on our site were sitting around contemplating what we should do that weekend, Shaun suggested we should go sky diving. At first the idea was kind of a joke but by the time sunday rolled around 22 of us had decided to jump out of a moving aircraft.

Skydiving was one of the most ridiculously cool things I've ever done. From the plane I had the best view ever, I could see all the way to Vancouver Island and Mount Baker. When the plane door opened and it was time to go I was so excited I wasn't even scared. The freefall lasted about 15 seconds and then the parachute opened and the view was even more spectacular. When I landed on the ground I was met by the cheers of people who had already gone. If you have the means I highly suggest going skydiving.
