I like new adventures, and I used to play a lot of sports. Then one day a friend introduced me to skydiving. In this activity, you jump out of an airplane and fall for hundreds of meters before a parachute opens. My friend started skydiving two years ago. He said it was easy and very exciting and I should try it. He gave me lessons on how to skydive. And then we went up in an airplane. We were strapped together and we jumped out of the airplane. We fell for 30 seconds before he opened our parachute. I was really scared. We went so fast. We landed safely, but I couldn't stand up for a few minutes because I was so scared. Many people think skydiving is an exciting hobby, but I thought it was frightening. Never again.

Hi Jim,

What are you doing next Saturday?

Our annual charity skydive is coming up. If you're free, do you want to join us?

We're meeting outside the supermarket near the airfield at 2 p.m. and the jump will take place at 3 p.m. The jump will raise money for a local charity to help poor children. There will be 12 jumpers including you if you come.

I know you enjoyed doing the charity skydive last year. Let me know if you can come by Tuesday.

I'm sure we'll have a really good time.

See you soon,

Suzanne
