On Friday and Saturday, we took 35 kids BUILD kids to 4 universities in the Bay Area: Menlo College, Univ. of San Francisco, UC Merced, and Notre Dame de Namur Univ.
It was crazy! Imagine pouring rain, 400 miles of driving, six kids in each car, early wake up calls and a late night. But all in all, the kids and staff had a GREAT time, learned a lot about the schools, and bonded. It was well worth it, but when I got home on Saturday night, I fell asleep from 8:30 pm to 8:30 am. Then I went to get pancakes at Chloe’s Cafe, went back home, and slept again from 10 am to 1 pm.
It’s Friday night now and I’m STILL exhausted from the trip!
here are some choice pictures from the trip (my minivan was the coolest because we had a DVD player and could watch movies).
It was cute because I felt like a dad driving all the kids around. And the best part was that they were all very well-behaved.
I had Carlos, Elizabeth, Enrique, Cindy, Alex and staffmember Anne in my car. It was a great ride. I can’t wait to be a dad so I can go on camping trips with my kids. haha!
Next week is the LA College Trip, and luckily I do NOT have to drive for that. We are taking a charter bus. The trip, however, is supposedly more exhausting because it’s four days and three nights. At least it’ll be in LA and everyone loves LA. Ha!
