Just Because: The Senior Trip

Mike and I were chaperone's for the DHHS senior trip. Wow. We were going non-stop. We were very tired at the end. We kept forgetting to take pictures, so all we have are from the last day. I'll give you a run down of the trip though (because I know you want to know :).
Wednesday: We left at 8 pm. We helped load the buses and check in the 230 graduates. There were 4 charter buses and 26 chaperone's. We stopped in Barstow for the night and the kids had a pool party until 3 am. We had a great room with a jacuzzi tub inside the room. The room above us was identical to ours and had kids in it. they decided to have a "pool" party in their room. Mike stormed up there and the kids settled down. We were tired.
Thursday: We woke up early and drove to Six Flags. We stayed until 5:30pm. It was fun. mike and I rode so many roller coasters. We had a blast. It was wonderful. After that we left for dinner and a party on a yacht. This was my FAVORITE part of the trip. We had a Mexican meal, socialized with some of the other chaperone's, and then danced. The DJ sucked, but it was so fun to dance with Mike :) It was a wonderful night. We then drove to the hotel in Anaheim and waited up until the kids curfew of 2am then crashed.
Friday: We spent the WHOLE day (15 hours) in Disneyland and California Adventure. We went on everything we wanted within the first 6 hours and were then rather bored. I had a seizure and it took awhile to recover. We went on some rides just to sleep. Lame right? Then we went on Big Thunder and Mike hurt himself (bad pulled muscle from his neck all the way through his back. he could barely walk and felt like he was going to throw up. We went to the First Aid station for him to lay down. After and hour, we called a shuttle to take us back to the hotel. We slept and then I got up at 12:30 to meet the buses. The kids were wasted and a few were left behind causing some bus issues. Not the best of days.

Saturday: We left the hotel for Hollywood. The leader had a surprise for us. She made us believe we were meeting some kind of movie star. Not the case, but on the way we did see a homeless guy peeing. That was fun. The real surprise was the Wax Museum. Below are some pics. We saw the walk of fame and all the crazies out in Hollywood. Not a glamorous place. Very ugly and run down. The museum was fun though :) After our Hollywood experience, we went to the beach where we served the kids lunch and played, then we boarded the buses for home. told ya- non-stop- but it was fun. I think we might do it again......in a couple of years :)
