These past few days have been a bit cramped. "One thing they don't tell you before you get on the bus is that you will be sleeping on the bus in a NON HORIZONTAL POSITION for TWO NIGHTS. ahahahah" - Matt Remenda. We spent our time playing games for as long as we could tolerate them, Matt loved Go Fish. Its not always comfortable trying to lay between bags, leg rests, and other people but we make do. As long as you make sure you don't have to go to the washroom in the middle in the night on the bus or else you will have to mess with Ryan Wiens whose head was right in front of the washroom door, its not that bad.
On the brighter side we won't be sleeping on the bus for a while - tomorrow we will be in a hotel and then we will be in Camp Christian for a week. "We have eaten almost all our food and now we are relying on what's left to get us through the week, WHICH! is awesome because its great food!" - Matt Remenda.
Today we stopped at the Elvis town or Elvis place or however Matt Remeda says it, he thought that signing a dead guy's wall was really stupid, but everyone else signed it anyway. After Elvis Town (Graceland, Memphis) we stopped at the National Civil Rights Museum. There we stopped and learned about the life and death of Martin Luther King Junior as well human rights leaders and civil rights movements. We just stopped at our hotel a few hours ago and we had supper at Abbay's. We had some fun afterwards, especially Matt and now we are just chillin' in the lobby.
Tomorrow we are on our way to New Orleans to see the French Quarter.
"PEACE OUT! :)" - Matt Remenda - Liam Peters
