ON THE BEACH!

This past Sunday was the

last day of the World Parachuting Championship.

What a great day it was to be 

ON THE BEACH!

What an awesome day to be ON THE BEACH!

NATIONAL DAY CELEBRATED - THE BEACH!

John and I spent all day yesterday at the 

BEACH!

(For those of you in cold, frigid areas -- you are so welcome!)
 

It was an absolutely gorgeous day,

with bright blue skies,

and a nice, warm breeze blowing!

(Okay, so maybe it was a bit more than a simple breeze!)

The World Parachuting Competition

was well underway at 

SkyDiveDubai.

 

All afternoon, planes took off,

parachuters jumped into the sky,

and the planes came back and landed!

(And then they'd do it all over again, and again, and again!)

A grandstand had been built, next to the

BEACH

of the Arabian Sea,

for spectators to watch the competition.

(Or you could just watch from the sand, like John and I!)

A huge screen was erected

 to allow spectators

 to watch the magnificent aerial formations of the jumpers.

 

Back on the BEACH,

diversity 

"at its best" was displayed!

Yes, it was a beautiful day at the BEACH, to be sure!

So much so, that John and I were 

too dog-gone tired

to go to the Opening Ceremony for the

World's Parachuting Competition! 

(We are pathetic at times!)

But we did manage to head over to

The JBR Walk

to join in the National Day festivities!

(More on that tomorrow!)

 

BEACH!*!
