Day 20

Parachute. If you think I'm going to unpack 180 sq ft of parachute on a rainy day just to take a photo for you, then think again!! :D So instead here is the toggle for the pilot chute (that's the little one that you pull out that opens the main canopy - hopefully). This little guy hasn't let me down yet!

  1. wow, so you do jumps! Man, I wish I were that brave. I don't mind flying, actually enjoy it, but something about free falling without any thing to actually hold on to, would make me shiver.

  2. Well, I was way off. I thought it was part of a more pedestrian backpack! Somehow I would have imagined a parachute control would have more markings/warnings on it. But what do I know? You'd never catch me up there jumping out of a plane!

  3. My vision of parachutes is much more colourful but I do like this photo.

  4. Hey, nice selective colouring. Really makes the toggle stand out.

  5. But it's for a photo! You have to do these things sometimes! Haha, no this is just as effective, we still get the idea ;)
