well i only have about 15 min to write so i will make this quick.
I got to afghanistan and it was like i never left. hmmm surprise surprise there. well when i got out to the old FOB i was really surprised how much it built up, it was crazy! ac, fridges and microwaves, i never thought i would have those luxuries out there. I got pretty sick twice! the first time i was still in KAF and had to run off the parade square ( we were getting ready for a ramp ceremony) for the nearest bathroom! fun fun.... not exactly. Anyways things are pretty good considering out there. Im fairly happy and there is a gym as well. trying to get back in to shape anyways. So its been good and to top it off theres fresh meals 2x a day! so things have really looked up since i left.
I am currently at the drop zone in costa brava. I arrived in spain on the 16th was down in tosse de mar and now im in empuriabrava. I am doing my AFF course. It is amazing!!! It is my qualification course to free fall sky diving. It has gotten windy but hopefully tonight i will be doing my last jump! wooo hooo then bring on the beers! lol! naw its been crazy, you start with a tandom jump and you work yourself up to doing roles in the air. I attempted it earlier but well as my sgt major would put it, looked like a monkey humping a football! So my final jump and i am doing it solo, wow the transition of going from someone holding on to you to no one, was crazy. big difference but its so much better, the thrill is there that much more! Well tomorrow may be more jumps or kayaking to where theres caves, then biking around to all the fishing towns. Will see, I have 5 more days then i move on to seville, so lots of time to go see the sights!
anyways just thought i would let everyone know im still alive and getting the best view of spain!!!!
