Skydiving

No, we've not taken up a new hobby but this area is renowned for free-fall parachuting. It's easy to see them after their parachutes have opened - the hard bit is trying to spot them in freefall, so now when we hear the planes go over we see who can spot the bodies descending to earth at great speed. Some of them make star formations which makes them easier to spot. It must be an amazing feeling but not one either of us plan to experience - it's nerve-wracking enough just watching from the ground!
