When we got to the top, they opened the door. \u00a0I saw other people jump out before me. Finally my turn, I was instructed to sit on the edge of the open door with my feet hanging out. \u00a0My guide pushed off out and we immediately got sucked out of the plane and began to free fall. \u00a0Once out of the plane, I was not scared anymore. \u00a0The free fall was the best part, as we were just falling out of the sky. \u00a0He released the parachute and we continued to land safely. \u00a0It was honestly the most unreal thing I have ever done. \u00a0I could see all of Byron Bay and the ocean. \u00a0It was beautiful.<\/p>\n<p>I addition we got to go snorkeling and surfing. \u00a0We had meals at restaurants that were really good. \u00a0We also went to the lighthouse which is super famous. \u00a0I also took part in an Australian tradition- eating a mango and burying the skin in the sand.<\/p>\n<p>current state of the union<\/p>\n<p>in skydiving, cheeky monkey, trip, whale watching, mangos<\/p>\n<p>out: swimmers ear, cliques, plane rides<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.rollins.edu\/letters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/2-Hannah-013-300x225.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-17124 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.rollins.edu\/letters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/2-Hannah-013-300x225-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.rollins.edu\/letters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/2-Hannah-042-300x225.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-17125 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.rollins.edu\/letters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/2-Hannah-042-300x225-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.rollins.edu\/letters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/2-Hannah-057-300x225.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-17126 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.rollins.edu\/letters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/2-Hannah-057-300x225-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.rollins.edu\/letters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/DSC00845-300x200.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-17127 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.rollins.edu\/letters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/DSC00845-300x200-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.rollins.edu\/letters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/DSC00868-300x200.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-17128 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.rollins.edu\/letters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/DSC00868-300x200-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>recently, i have gone to baryon bay on a Rollins trip. \u00a0The trip was very organized and fun, but the highlight would have to be skydiving. \u00a0Though this was not included in the trip by Rollins, we had free day to do whatever we wanted. \u00a0For some crazy reason, I thought I should\u00a0take advantage of&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":201,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[37],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3378","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-sydney"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.rollins.edu\/letters\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3378","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.rollins.edu\/letters\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.rollins.edu\/letters\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.rollins.edu\/letters\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/201"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.rollins.edu\/letters\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3378"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.rollins.edu\/letters\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3378\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":17129,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.rollins.edu\/letters\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3378\/revisions\/17129"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.rollins.edu\/letters\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3378"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.rollins.edu\/letters\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3378"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.rollins.edu\/letters\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3378"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
