Choir Tour - Anaheim, CA (Day 1)

5:00 am: Arrival at the high school to board the tour buses and begin the drive to California. I got on the bus and as soon as we started driving, I crashed. This was due to the earliness of the morning and having gone to bed at about 1:30 am. :P

We stopped in Cedar City to do a choral exchange at the high school.  Afterwards, we ate lunch, and kept on driving.

Oh the adventures of the bus ride there. . .

 

Rachel and I in our silliness :)

 

 

After several stops along the way, we made to Balboa Beach.  We got there just as the sun was setting and it was beautiful.

(Gotta love our wind blown hair ;))

We got our feet wet (even though the water was really cold), ate delicious sandwiches at a restaurant near the beach, then boarded the buses once again to drive to the hotel.

After we arrived at our hotel, I was waiting for the elevator with the other girls. All of the sudden, the ground started to shake. Things around me were moving and rattling and I had no idea what was going on. This went on for maybe 5 seconds, and then it stopped. Someone said, "That was an earthquake." What?? I hadn't even registered that's what was going on. Later we found out it measured to be a 5.1. Pretty crazy stuff. Well, at least I can say I have lived through an earthquake. Haha :)

Later, we had a girls night and watched "Say Yes to the Dress" and "Something Borrowed, Something New".  It was the best!! :D

That's it for day 1 of this California adventure!
