Skydive Done!! Australia was “Fair Dinkum”.

Sean | May 25, 2009

I finally fit in the skydive.  14,000 ft over Cairns and the Great Barrier Reef.

HOLY COW!!!  WHAT A RUSH!!!  Impossiblt to explain, but it totally kills bungy jumping!!

I had a photographer jump with me, so I have a DVD video and pictures.  Unfortunately, my laptop cannot convert DVD video to an uploadable format, and the picture CD does not come up on my external drive.

Right now I’m at a free internet kiosk in the Sydney Airport waiting to board my flight (Emirates EK 419) to Bangkok in about 15 minutes.  I’ll arrive at 1AM… ouch!!
