My daughter jumped out of a plane!

Yes, she really did. She did a charity sky dive last weekend to raise money for a Rose Road playscheme for children with special needs. The jump had been planned for February, but after they arrived and had the requisite training the weather became too poor.



She particularly liked the hat :-)



For someone who doesn't like heights she looks remarkably cheerful!



Oh good grief.



I was obviously nervous on her behalf but it wasn't until I saw the photos that I suddenly realised it hadn't occurred to me she'd actually be higher than the clouds!



Thanks goodness - they remembered the chute!



She even had a go at "steering"!



Such a long way down...



Terra Firma! Finally I get to be a relieved and very proud parent :-D



Well done Sarah! She raised over £400, more details on her JustGiving page.





You may notice from the comments Haptree just reminded me I forgot the obligatory meerkat pic!
