And it begins..

Yesterday my mom and I woke up at 3 in the morning got ready to leave and headed to the airport at 3:30. We arrived there around 5 am checked our bags and went through security all in about 20 minutes. As we were walking away from the scanners one of the officer people starts asking around saying someone left something at the scanner, we thought nothing of it and went on our way to our gate. After getting to our gate and getting all settled in and ready to wait for our 7 am flight my mom realized she left her laptop at the scanner and she was the one they were looking for. After running back to the security area, we then proceeded to wait for our flight.We arrived in Houston, Texas at 12:15. I noticed that the bathrooms there had stalls that are way wider, they also had much more comfortable chairs. While our second plane was flying over Texas I was able to see quite a few bodies of water, there were also two rivers; one was filled with brown water and the other was green. Once leaving LAX everyone I have encountered has had an accent, I find them to be quite amusing. The plane we sat on going from Houston to St. Louis had a screaming child on it..Once we landed in St. Louis I thought it would be over but another child boarded the plane going from St. Louis to Louisville. This one was much younger and although it wasn't exactly screaming, it was making very loud obnoxious noises. Thankfully I was able to distract myself with a movie the girl sitting next to me was watching, Date Night, I fell asleep during my favorite part though. We finally arrived in Louisville around 8 pm. We collected our bags, got our car and headed to the hotel.

Today we woke up around 12, did some errands, and headed over to the camp that the Friendship Team is staying at. Once we arrived there were only a couple people here and we learned that the sleeping arrangements had gotten mixed up...Which meant I had no bed for the moment. The 4 vaulters that were here decided to waste some time until everyone else returned. When we returned around 8; we had dinner, got some of our clothing and were instructed to go to bed at 9..That's only 6 pm at home..

So now I'm waiting for the other girls to finish getting ready so we can have a little meeting and go to sleep.
