skydived over lake taupo in new zealand, it was the last jump of the day, a beautiful sunset, with Mt. Doom (from Lord of the Rings fame) in the background. "spectacular" doesnt even begin to describe it.

教，学，和分享

How gelato is different from ice cream:
- ice cream typically has a minimum of 10 percent fat, and gelato has about 5 to 7% (its made with a greater proportion of whole milk to cream)

-ice cream can contain as much as 50 percent air while Gelato contains about 25 to 30 percent air (gelato is churned at a slower speed than ice cream, so it's denser because not as much air is whipped into the mixture)

- ice cream is typically served frozen, but gelato is typically stored and served at a slightly warmer temperature
