OMG! My Daughter Went Skydiving! Mokuleia Hawaii

By
Real Estate Agent with Liberty Homes RS-#62825

Doooorrriiiiiiiiii

~~~~~~~~

If you just want to HANG AROUND go to the Dillingham Air Field on the North Shore of Oahu and do the Skydiving thing.

Dillingham Airfield was fully utilized during World War II. Over the years it was an Army Air Field and an Air Force Air Field and finally closed but used for civil use in the 1970's. 

In a joint agreement with the military and the State of Hawaii it continued civil use and in the late 1990's until present there are the skydiving and sailplane rides. The gliders and many private aircraft are based here as well.

Now, back to the title. Yup, that's my daughter skydiving. Did she tell me she was going first? Nope. She's about 90 pounds so you gotta know that she NEEDED someone to hold on to her lol! Below is Kaena Point on the North Shore of Oahu and right before it is Dillingham Airfield. 

Any one of you who is a parent knows what it's like to worry about your kid. ....No matter how old they get...they're still your babies. At least I still feel like that.....especially when they're quite a ways up in the air...in the clouds and just 'hanging around' up there.

 So....enjoy the show.....Dori up in the clouds :)

Sally, Momma says no! What can you do...I'm like Missy....she has to do her own thing. Don't you just hate when they grow up and can make their own decisions....actually it's all good...all parts. I think you get closer when they start making their own decisions and it's a good time when you are her friends that she comes to talk to and get advice....who would have ever thought it would actually happen. Love the video as always.

Sally- I have NO desire to ever do that! Glad she loved it. She looked like she loved it. I would be scared to death to watch my kids do that.

I have never understood why someone would jump out of a perfectly good airplane????????  Maybe for my 65th birthday I will try it what do you think.

I am sure she had fun doing it tho, aren't kids great?

Sally~ If any of my four children ever did that, they need NOT tell me first because I would rather NOT know until after the fact either!  I don't think I could ever do that, I mean heck I wouldn't even go Parasailing in Cancun, so I KNOW I wouldn't do it either!

Sally - My kids have never even mentioned anything like that - I worry enough when my son goes with his buddies hiking in the woods and they manage to get themselves lost - thank heaven he told me about it weeks later -

My brother has done that twice, me - NO WAY.  It was a big thing when I went on a GIANT swing in Orlando, FL (I forget how many stories high, something like five to seven stories high I think) with him, but jumping out of plane goes a bit too far for me.

HOLY COW!  I really want to try this out, but I think I will have to wait a few years as I want to skydive with my wife, and we have a couple little ones right now.  Thanks for the pics!

I love skydiving. I used to skydive in the nineties, have about 800+ jumps. Still miss it and dream about it, but wouldn't do it any more (unless somebody really twisted my arm). ~Rita
