Jumping out of a plane


It is 1pm on Feb 2 in NZ (but still technically my bday back home). I am waiting at the skydiving place for the skies to clear up. Funny thing is, Nelson is supposed to be the sunniest spot in NZ where the skies are clear 95% of the time. Except today. I really hope I get to do this on my birthday (and Alice too, whose bday is actually today!)

We went to the beach yesterday - it was gorgeous. The sands clean, water clear and turquoise blue, people para-sailing, and plenty of happy doggies playing. The Pacific Ocean was nice and warm.

After the beach, we went out for a nice seafood dinner by the water. All was scrumptious and the scenery breathtaking.

They are going to take a test run right now to see if the skies are good enough for the jumps. I'm crossing my fingers! Alice, Magda and I are going to skydive. Alice says "hi" to everyone!
