EDIT WHICH BECOMES ENTIRE POST: Finally have the time to fill this in.
First day was all travel, but still some cool stuff to talk about. The bus had a DVD player built in, so we watched a few movies, like Inception, which is like one of my favorites out there. We also stopped at a few rest stops on the way, like at this mall in Connecticut where they had a merry-go-round. Which I rode. Don't be hatin'. Now, we had a few of these, but we finally got there around like 11:30 at night and went straight up to the hotel rooms.
Next day was Jamestown settlement. They had all kinds of things, like what the colony looked like, a bunch of ship replicas, and even someone demonstrating how to use a musket. We took pictures, but I forgot my camera, and they probably won't end up anywhere but Facebook. I will not link to my Facebook page because I don't want to be added by random strangers. And then there was lunch. And then we went to the REAL Jamestown. Where they have the actual buildings still. It's a national park, you know. And my friend Maddie bought a Native American headdress, and gave us all Native American names. Call me Fiery Squirrel Who Flies. And then we performed and did really well. Fourth in Concert Band, Third in Jazz Band.
Day three. Busch Gardens. Epic. Except waiting while my group went on all the roller coasters. Like when the Loch Ness Monster broke down, I was stuck outside with the backpacks for like two hours. The awards ceremony was even inside the park. Oh yeah! There was a Band Competition during the trip! Now may be a good time to mention that we got first in Parade Band. Busch Gardens is awesome. I won't deny it.
Fourth day had as little to report as the first. Even less. We just came home.
Yesterday I got out of school because I was tired I mean SICK. I WAS SICK. So I worked on this big stressful paper that's due tomorrow, and got it done.
Now for some closing things. I'm starting driver's ed next week and I'm super excited. I'm gonna learn to drive a car, ho can I not be excited?
And I'll be getting serious about being a critic, as soon as I find something released recently enough to review. I'll make a separate blog for that when I feel like it.
