Home

We were all a little slow moving.  Everyone got ready and we went to breakfast at 9:15.  It was a Sunday Brunch according to the website.  We went into the Canteen where the buffet was set up.  There were little black bowls on warmers with food in them...scrambled eggs, porridge, rice, bacon/ham, potatoes, veggies.  There were also a few breads and a salad.  That was it. 

With 10 girls it took about 3 of them to empty the bowls before they needed to be refilled.  We stood and waited for the scrambled eggs for about 10-15 minutes. It was pretty ridiculous.  Needless to say I didn't have much. 

We chatted awhile because our drivers weren't suppose to be there until 11.  We looked in the blown glass shop.  There was some neat things but boy was it expensive.  No one got anything.  Back to the room to pack up.  At 11 we went to the parking lot.  Stine's driver was there so the 5 riding in her van packed their things in.  Megan's driver arrived around 11:20.  No big deal.  Loaded up and pulled out around 11:30. 

It started to rain a little bit.  We were following Megan's van.  At times people thought Stine's driver was driving like a maniac.  It wasn't too bad it was mainly just traffic so he was on and off the brakes.  But it does seem when the drivers try to follow each other the driving is wilder.  We did have one close call though.  We were cruising along when a giant truck pulled right in front of our van.  We were almost pinned between the guard rail and the truck.  Luckily it just missed us and Stine's driver laid on the brakes.  We all about had a heart attack and I grabbed Ileana's leg.  I think I squeezed it but hopefully didn't hurt her.  She said I didn't.

We arrived home a little after 3.  Perfect.  I walked in the apartment and to my surprise Todd and Cameron had done laundry (It was on the couch to be folded but...) and they had done the dishes (they were on the drying rack but...).  But at least they helped a bit.  I was shocked and happy.  Good job boys.

We skyped with both sets of parents and then off to bed.
