I chaperoned Juliet's choir trip to California. Oh man! This was a little hard for me. I feel like we didn't have a meeting about the expectations of chaperons or even what the heck we were supposed to do. Some of the other chaperons and myself were scratching our heads but nobody died and we all had a good time so it's fine. Juliet was not in my chaperone group but I saw her around.
I mainly went because Sheri and Shelly talked me into it. It was a fun party in the hotel room!
We went to Universal Studios. I haven't been there since I was a teenager. Way before Harry Potter became a thing.
At Universal Studios, I left my coat in the bus because it was hot during the day. I totally needed it at night. I refused to buy a $60 hoodie. I was going to buy Juliet one but she toughed it out. I ended up parking under this heater with a hot chocolate for part of an evening. I walked around with my arms in my shirt the rest of the time. Universal was our favorite part. Juliet had a great time hanging out with her friends!
We went to the beach one day! Not warm enough for me to get in the water but some kids had never seen the ocean!
We went to the Broadway play of the Lion King. The costumes were very interesting and the theatre itself was beautiful.
There was a visit to a University and I was falling asleep during an orchestra performance. I didn't sleep well at the hotel. The ride home was long and there wasn't a plan for a stop to use the bathroom. Yikes. Logistically, this trip is hard. I'm sure the two new teachers will change some things for next year.
