Flying with out wings

What a difference a day can make to your whole perception of life!

I've been really down over the last few weeks as I felt, with Jack leaving, I had no friends and am becoming isolated. Don't get me wrong I've met and get on with loads of people. But I've not been able to meet anyone who wants to hang out our of work or organised sporting activities.

Then Sunday rolled round. 

We met up with Jeremy a guy from Judo and went up to Motueka for a helicopter ride!

We got all strapped in, unfortunately jack won rock paper scissors and got the front seat. We got miked up and took off! 



It was really cool, we zoomed around picking up a few g's and got really close to a couple of mountains. We even saw some people dirt biking so we dropped down and the pilot held the chopper near horizontal so we could watch.



After the ride we all decided that packing in our jobs and becoming helicopter pilots was the only sensible thing to do!

We then drove over to tahunanui beach to play frisbee. It was really good fun -except that I still can't throw the bloody thing!- and we went for a beer -or in my case an alcoholic lemonade- after and had a really good time with the other guys in the club.





After the fun of the day Jack and I went home to play the intros game for about an hour!
