Flying was never on my bucket list of things to do in my life. I can't even float in water without having to hang onto the side of a pool so flying in air without anything to hold onto was not my idea of fun. Plus I am deathly afraid of heights!
But it was for my friend, Grace, who invited us to join her family to do a little bit of 'pseudo' sky diving without the airplane and sky part.
Owen, Matthew, Faith and Grace
iFly "is a 12ft diameter vertical wind tunnel capable of wind speeds over 180 mph. Four 250 horsepower fans mounted above the flight chamber create a recirculating wall to wall airflow that is smooth and consistent making it an ideal environment for body flight. IFly's unique design has a proven track record of being safe and reliable."
Matthew 'flying'
Reliable or not I was so not going to try it.. but Grace, her husband, Owen and her daredevil daughter Faith all jumped at the challenge!
Grace flying sky high!
Owen diving in!
Faith is fearless... she gets that from both her parents!
You can check out their flying skills:

Afterwards... no one threw up... so we went to lunch!
The 8 of us are always eating!
