We woke up
to the V screaming at 6 A.M. for us to hurry up and get dressed so we could
quickly get onto Highway 1 and leave Lake Cachuma. We first stopped at Wally World, and the
cooks bought breakfast for today and tomorrow, lunch, and dinner. We quickly ate a breakfast of Cheese
Danishes, Honeybuns, or Raspberry Crumbles with a banana (while some of us
opted for a McDonalds breakfast instead).
We chatted and talked as we rode
down Highway 1 because we were not allowed to sleep unless we wanted to be
licked by Evan or Vicky. Some of our fellow participants did not believe they
would get licked, but Dylan Heafner lived to tell us all differently. The
counselors did not want us to miss the breathtaking view, so it was about the
thought that counts. We took a short
rest stops that included the petting of a cat, beautiful pictures, and long
bathroom lines.
$4.69 A GALLON IN CALIFORNIA!! |
Next stop was……… MONTERY,
CALIFORNIA!! We stayed there for about an hour shopping and buying small snacks
and souvenirs before leaving. But what
we didn’t realize is that Monterey was not the only thing we were leaving
behind until we pulled off. No other than
Josh Davis and Parker Wherly missed the bus due to their excessive lateness
caused by a Starbucks line (they said it was worth it). We immediately drove around the block and we
saw them running towards the bus.
Many of our fellow participants
told their biggest fears and most embarrassing stories to pass the time and
grow our TWB family bond as we drove into San Francisco. We took a pause in our storytelling to eat
our “wonderful” dinner of pizza wraps, made of flour tortillas, cheese, and
pizza sauce.
We arrived at Lakeview Presbyterian
Church, our campsite for the night around 7:30 p.m. This will be another night
where we are sleeping shoulder to shoulder, BUT we are all very greatful for
the showers we were able to receive at the YMCA next door. We took turns running next door for our
two-minute showers, but they felt so good we did not care! Before bed, we combined our laundry with our
friends for the sweet Chinese lady to do our laundry because she has an
eight-pound limit our laundry.
We are ready to get a goodnight
sleep, so that we can enjoy our whole day exploring San Francisco tomorrow!!
PEACE.
HOLLA.
BLESSINGS.
Love,
