The Big Plunge

There's this experience:

And then there's my experience. Happily, I did not lose my teeth. But I did go skydiving! Yesterday at 8 am my Felix came and picked me up for our next Big Adventure. We then proceeded to drive to my Kyle's house to pick him up. The Trifecta jumped out of a perfectly good airplane at about 10 am yesterday morning. Best. Thing. Ever. Kind of I was worried about losing my shoes (when you're falling at 120mph and your shoes aren't tied on, it's a valid fear) but they stayed on the whole way down, landing and everything.

The view, while being very... brown, was still incredible. I have never seen that much sky/ground so uninterrupted. You could see for miles! We jumped from 12,500 feet, so it only makes sense. My Tandem person pointed out LA, Anaheim, San Diego, and a bunch of other directions to me. It was kind of overwhelming, really, but so worth it.

I'll post pictures as soon as I get them from my Felix.

I can now cross two items off my list of Things I Want to Do Before I Die:
Work for Disney.
Go Skydiving.

Who knows what I'll cross off next?
