😰Skydiving Narrative😰
After a long time we finally got to go skydiving,
“Hurry I don’t wanna be late,” Dad bawled.
“yesssssssss”
“were finally going SKYDIVING! Sara squealed.
When we got there the skydivers and the people that worked there told us
to put on the jumpsuit,helmet,goggles and we had to make sure that our shoes
wouldn’t come off and there was nothing in their pockets while we were falling.
Then after we put on our outfit they had to teach us about the safety training first
before doing the actual skydiving so we know what to do while falling. We had to
learn how to hold onto the parachute and how to control it.

They changed out of their outfits that they had to wear, Later they said goodbye to everyone
