Skydive Taupo!

Tihi!!
I did it and i survived..!
I hadn't really planned it..just thought about it a little..but as i checked in at the backpackers in Taupo, i just asked the receptionist how it was with the skydiving..does it need prebooking, how often can you sign up and so on.. she only answered: ill find out for you! So a few hours later I find myself in the aeroplane on my way up to 15 000 feet! S***!
I was terrified in the aeroplane..but it was still the best thing ever! As I sat with my feet dangling outside the aircraft I felt really safe..certain that Mike, my instructor, would take care off me! And before I could give it another thought, he pushed me out!! And it was soo fast!! And soo cold! And just absolutely crazy! Here I was falling, at least 200 km/h towards the ground! I suddenly realised I had to scream! Cause thats what you do, isnt it..? But realised quickly that screaming didnt help much! And soon I realised that Mike was actually controlling the chaos! We were spinning and turning and gliding through the air..extremely fast, though! And as i felt it was under control, he pulled the chute and it was chaos again! But this time going up instead of down!
But then it went soo quiet.. we were just sailing through the air! Amazing!
I might have found a new hobby..so..Leo Holding, here i come!! ;)

Hei Malin!
Ha en fortsatt fantastisk tur! Sitter her og er dødens missunnelig på alt du finner på :) Utrolig morro å lese om fallskjermhoppet ditt!! Neste tur blir du nok nødt til å ta meg med i kofferten din :) Eller kommer du hjem i det hele tatt? Jeg tror jeg hadde blitt igjen...
