TWB Trip 2 2016 Experience: Day 3

WE WOKE UP SO EARLY TODAY!!!!! 4:35AM TO BE EXACT!! HOLY COW!

Even though we were half asleep, we stumbled to the bus hoping for some extra sleep time while we made our way to San Antonio, Texas!

MEREDITH NANNEY IS OUT!

JOSH FEEMSTER taking another snooze

Breakfast this morning consisted of muffins and Go-Gurt! YUM!

Though a majority of people went back to sleep, we entertained ourselves for the 10+ hour bus ride playing cards, jamming out to the music, playing “would you rather”, and getting closer to our TWB family.

We made a few more stops at Flying J’s to fill up the tanks and take bathroom breaks! We had lunch, which consisted of bagel sandwiches, and traveled, through Louisiana’s Cajun Country into the great state of Texas. Seeing that the first mile marker read 880, we were all a little intimidated! Construction and scatter showers set us back a bit, but we got to San Antonio at about 4.

We toured the historic Alamo as a group then proceeded to the river walk, barefoot because a lady was supposed to meet us at the river with special flip flops, though she failed to show up. The concrete was super hot, but the trek was rewarding because we got to soak our feet in the cool water at the end. From there we split up into smaller groups and explored the shops and restaurants nearby for a mere 45 minutes. We piled back on to the bus and vans for the last leg of our day. For dinner we had wraps and carrots while on our way to Schreiner University. An ambassador from the college, senior José, spoke to us about the college and his personal experiences. He told us about the different sports on campus, and what makes the school different from others in the area. He told us the classes are small, professors really get to know you and they care about you and your success in school!
