Bay of plenty, bay of islands...surfing & skydiving session....you must do it...it is awesome!!

Dear all,

After Tongariro, we headed North, to visit Rotorua, its hot pools & geysers, went to Bay of plenty to relax and surf, went to Auckland to sell our van (what we did successfully in 2 days for a slightly higher price ;-), and then headed even up North to visit Bay of islands to keep on surfing and....glaglagla...skydiving from 12,000ft (roughly 3,700m) with 44seconds of free fall! Agnes registered me 3 weeks ago without my consent. She asked me: " Do you want to go skydiving? I said: No. She said: Too late, I just paid"....I have been scarred and excited for the past 3 weeks, what a relief...but also what a joy!!! It is such a great experience....we clearly want to do it again and probably will do anytime we will have the opportunity...We now have 6 days left here in NZ. We will finish our trip in a region called Coromandel...to keep on surfing...Life is hard...but more importantly exciting! Check out the skydive video (the youtube video was available in France for a week but due to music protection (Sacem), it seems not to be working anymore in this country only...If you are from another country, feel free to click here to try my own video or, click here to see the new Youtube video from the Skydive company featuring myself and Agnes and a few pics under the usual sections: New Zealand, Foodies, Portraits and See us.
