Helicopters Rock!

I've never been on a helicopter before in all my life. Even back in my Vietnam days. But I have to say that few experiences are as visceral as being several kilometers up in the air on an aircraft with no doors on it! Wow! I even got nervous at the beginning - with visions of myself slipping off the seat and falling falling falling.... But then I realized that I was pretty well strapped in and I stopped being so nervous.

The trip was an hour long and we did a tour of the whole island, going right into canyons, past countless waterfalls (of which one is the famous Jurassic Park waterfall where they landed at the beginning of the movie), along beautiful secluded beaches... What a dream! But it was actually reality, so it was even better.

I want to become a helicopter pilot. Don't tell Ubisoft!

By the way, I finally swam in the ocean today. I know you are all thrilled for me. :-)

And lastly, I've been asked to upload a photo of the wild chickens. I will take some tomorrow and upload them in the next post.

Hope everyone is doing well in their respective parts of the world!
