Day 5 - A Skydiving Adventure (well almost)

The team met at coordinator Al's store - Napa Auto Parts and then had a brief tour of Temecula, followed by a visit to the Temecula Public Library.




The Library was only 2 years old and was impressive -with videoconferencing facilities and an automated RFID returns system which checked in and sorted the books by category into bins.

After some lunch it was time for the simulation skydive at Perris Valley Skydiving. We had some training and then it time for the real thing. It was much harder than we thought but our instructor was very patient with us and once we got the hang of it we managed to fly.



The skydiving was followed by a visit to the world famous Budweiser Clydesdales. The horses are used in TV commercials and parades at theme parks in the US. We were very lucky as the trucks that transport the horses were staying overnight at the farm.



What a great way to start the official GSE experience!!
