Postscript to Day No. 15

choose courage over comfort

What do you get when you put Heike in a helicopter and take off? 

A happy Heike. 😃

What do you get when you put Heike in a helicopter, take off, fly a few maneuvers and let her jump in the water? 

A very happy Heike in high spirits! 😂

Honestly, that day I felt like the little girl walking over a fair at her father's hand, saying over and over again, "I want to go back to the carousel!"😉 I've never been scared of height or speed in my life. But you know what happens over time - you start to favor comfort. That's absolutely okay. Most people do the crazy things when they are young. Well, when I was that age, my life was different and somehow I never got to do 'crazy' things. I always wanted parachuting, but as a start into my second half of life, the jump from the helicopter was already the right thing - and I could imagine doing this more often.😇

But let's go back to Saturday 2 weeks ago. I don't know how my honey felt, but at no time did I have any doubts or concerns about our adventure - except if I fit in the wetsuit. I repeat myself, I know. Therefore, I will now only comment on the promised photos and videos - as short as possible. 

Have fun and here we go with the protagonists!😎
