Jo's 30th Birthday

Tandem Sky Diving at Suttons Beach Redcliffe

sunny 25 °C

Well turning 30 is a pretty big thing, no more 20's, time to start acting grown up. I don't like planes, and am not a keen fan of heights either, so why not celebrate this new journey of my life by jumping out of a tiny plane at 14,000 feet in the air?? Well, it was a thrill I must say, a thrill I have no intention of experiencing again, but for those 65 seconds of free fall I felt every nerve ending in my body. My lungs got a serious work out too, I managed to let out an extremely loud, ridiculous girly scream for the whole free fall, lucky no one could hear me..well except for the guy strapped behind me. Anyway, for those contemplating a jump, just do it!! But don't let the look on my face deter you!
