This morning, we woke up in the dark at 4:45 AM and immediately packed up. Feels like we closed our eyes for only a couple of seconds!! We then got on the buses and vans where most of us slept until we pulled out and made it to our first stop, Flying J's! At Flying J's, we met Angela, a cashier, who was very interested in our group and said that she was going to follow our blog.... so hello Angela if you are seeing this! All of our meals today were traveling meals so for breakfast we had a gourmet breakfast of granola bars, banana or oranges, and on brand Capri-suns!! Yum!
Around lunch time, we arrived at Buc-ee's where many of us enjoyed brisket sandwiches, as well as, other snacks and drinks. Those that didn't eat at Buc-ee's waited to enjoy ham or turkey sandwiches on the road. While in Buc-ee's, we also stocked up on our Buc-ee's wear and could believe how big it actually was. There were 120 fueling bays!!
After just a few more hours and a lot of traffic, we finally arrived in San Antonio where we explored the Alamo in 104 degree heat. We also had free time to explore San Antonio's famous Riverwalk! Some people went into shops along the river or even picked up a scoop of ice cream. Leaving the Alamo and Riverwalk behind, we travelled on to Schreiner University where we spent the night in their gym. No competitions for us tonight, just showering (huge shoutout to Megan for making sure that we could) and getting some good sleep to prepare for the canyon in just 2 days!
