Skydiving

semi-overcast 19 °C

Jumped out of a plane from 12,000 ft today. That was pretty aweosme I must say. Bricked it a wee bit but once you're out of the plane you just enjoy it. 45 seconds of freefall until the chute opens and then bout 4 minutes soaring down, taking pictures of Lake Taupo with my Weet-Bix disposable camera! Really good fun although my stomach still doesn't fel just right.

Back in Napier now then and heading to Palmerston North and then Wellington for this next week. Not bothered picking any more blueberries cause of the guaranteed job in Methven.

Dutchies and Americans have been donwi n Napier tihs last week so kind of like a mini reunion which was cool.

In crappy news, Owen got word that his Granny has died back in Manchester. It's tough on him anyway, but particularly cause he's not around his family and he didn't get to say good-bye. Please pray for him as he was already feeling homesick anyway and that we would be careful with what we say to him.

That skydive was tremendous!!!! Cost about 75-80 quid compared to 220 bacjk home. Well impressed. Sometihng i really would recommend. Along with Stevies.
I miss Stevies.
And roast meat
