Airlie beach - Pips birthday/skydive and the whitsunday islands!!

---

We have had such a fun last 10 days. We were in airlie beach for 4 nights and chill out days on the beach, and a very unforgetable day on Pips birthday. We went skydiving, it was incredible, we flew over the whitsunday islands, and we did it at sunset - perfect! Considering i am scared of heights, i am shocked that i jumped out of a plane that was 14000ft high. The one minute free fall was such a weird feeling! So amazing im going to try and upload the dvd i got soon. We then sailed to the whitsunday islands . The boat was so much fun, met lots of people! We had beautiful weather for 3 days solid which was ideal for what we were doing. We went to all the islands of the whitsundays and they went to white haven beach. The sand at whitehaven isnt like sand it feels like silk, its made out of silko i think? and the colour is so so white its beautiful. Pip and i saw 2 reef sharks which was pretty serial, and we saw millions of fish when we snorkled. we also had such nice food which was cooked for us so it was a nice break from food shopping and cooking.
