Skydiving was fun. I think that I'm going again at the end of the summer. I want to do some research and find out what it takes to get certification to jump by yourself and not do tandem.

I was 1200 feet in the air! After 6000ft of freefall (approx 1 minute at 150mph) I opened my chute and steered around for a while before I steered in to land at the drop zone. My instructor was impressed, I was thrilled. Afterwards I thought. If I hadn't pulled the chute, it would have only been about 45 seconds until I died. Whoa.

I don't really like writing about it, because it's not that interesting to read... way more interesting to do. Sortof like Prague.

This has been the most exciting year of my life so far.
