Skydive Aruba

Mrs. 44 and I were walking on the beach when we spotted the skydivers descending toward the windsurf huts near Marriott. It was impressive to see the amount of control these guys had. Here's a link to my video of the scene:

I'll stick with flying the plane and leave the parachuting to the airborne divisions.

We had never skydived before but have wanted to for years, so when we booked our trip to Aruba we decided this was our chance! We were not disappointed. Being able to see the entire island as you are falling from 10,000 feet was amazing. The team at Skydive Aruba were very professional and made us feel safe. It was the biggest thrill of our trip.
