I had been waiting for this all year! We had our 6th grade class trip on Fri. the 24. Our teachers had been planning this and talking about this and warning us about this and getting us excited about this since...like... FOREVER! It was the best field trip ever! We had to be at school at 5:00 AM or we would miss the bus. The bus wasn't just a normal school bus it was a charter bus! It had a bathroom in it AND a DVD player and it was
A LOT more comfortable than a school bus. which was great because we were on that bus for4 hours! which seems a lot longer when kids are screaming all around you. since we were on the bus from 5:00 - 9:00 we got to see the sunrise! Any way when we finally got to our first stop (the Slugger Museum) it felt like we had been on the bus FOREVER! and to make matters worse we had to wait on the bus for about 10 extra minutes because we got there early! Anyway when we FINALLY got in we watched a movie, then they took us out to the museum part of the tour we all just fan around and explored that part. then we split into 3 groups and went through the factory part no pics aloud :( then we got back on the turner bus and headed off to the Ohio river to go on a cruise. We ate lunch and since we were in Kentucky we had
REAL Kentucky fried chicken yum-yum. After that we went up to the sky deck (I think that's what it's called) and hung out. Pretty soon the DJ started playing songs like
Cotton Eye Joe, Macarania , Electric slide, Cupid shuffle, etc. that we all knew and we started dancing to them! It was quite a sight . If someone didn't know the dance to one of the songs every one else pushed them around untill they got it. It was hillarious!!! After that was all over we docked and got back on the charter bus and rode all of the way to Marango caves. We saw a lot of cool stilagtites and stilagmites. and about 5-7 creepy gross discusting and creepy bats. Can you tell I DO NOT like bats?! At all! Any way after that was over. We went to this thing-of-ma-bobbers that was supposed to be like you were crawling through a cave. The contraption was tiny and the sign on the outside said if you were closterphobic you shouldn't go through it. Well I'm slightly closterphobic and get totaally creeped out if something touches me and I don't know what it is you didn't have to go through it but Mom told me I'd regret it forever if I didn't go through (translation: you have to do it) so I was all like Oh-my-gosh-i-am-gonna-hyoervenilate-and-then-die! Well as you can tell I didn't die but that is something I would
NEVER do again! After the caves most kids got back on the bus and went home but some kids rode with their parents. I rode with Mom and we went to Susie and Les's house to see Cassie at Prom but I'll Post about that l8er
Here is the sunrise I took it out of the bus window
