Havasupai

Well we went to hava supai. It was fun. Very Fun. I actually had a great time. Sara was in a bad mood. So was everyone else.

Sorry.

So we started at about 6. The bus was late. And we drove for a really long time, I think we got there at 6 30? Sometime around then. As soon as we got there, we climbed off the bus and ate a quick little breakfast and started our hike in. I actually liked the hikes in and out. But I don't know if other people can say the same thing. Most people would have probably enjoyed it more if we weren't in such a big group.

The group I hiked in with got to the campground at about 10, 10 30. Then people just started spontaniously arriving till about 2 in the afternoon. We got bored really fast. Then at about 4ish we all went down to mooney falls at the bottom of the campground. Sara almost had a serious concussion on the rope swing. Scary. But its ok cuz evan jason would have dove in right after her. Just kidding, he's a creep

I think we did the service project on day two, or at least we tried to. I can't remember exactly why it didn't happen, but it didn't. Then we went to navajo falls and jumped off of them. One of my favorite parts of the trip.

Day 3 we actually did the service project, with great efficency too. We got done pretty early. And then we went to navajo falls and Jennifer took pictures. I would put some on, but i dont wanna take the time to save them all onto my computer, sorry. We started hiking out that night in the dark, which was an excellent idea btw. I'm really glad we did half of it at night, there is no way we would have made it out of the switchbacks without the sun hitting if we didn't. It was just kinda scary walking through the village at night, cuz greg said there were cougars. Which i didn't believe, cuz i dont think cougars can live down there

Day 4 is the last day of our trip, we just finished the hike out. and left. and pretty much everything that could possibly go wrong with a tour bus went wrong. our air conditioning went out and the internal temperature of the bus got up to 120 or something, it was really hot, cuz we were in the mojave desert. So we had to stop for an hour at rite aid and wait for our bus driver to fix the air conditioning. And then our tire blew up. That was also fun. It put us on a pretty big detour, but we got see fireworks, which i fell asleep during. And then James Burkhart woke me up before the bus ran me over. (i fell asleep in the parking lot behind the bus). Then we all fell asleep, and ended up getting home at 6 in the morning. another great addition to our trip.

That is all. Sorry about the no pictures btw

my favorite part was evacuating the bus because it was on fire haha

havasupai is all one word btw

i just did school for a very long time. just thought you should know.

you also forgot about how we were sleeping and the coyotes decided that they wanted to sleep with us on the rock, or eat us. either one.

and the part about the people who kept walking by us at like 3 in the morning asking if we were lost and making animal noises

good times on the bus. you should have at least put the picture of you holding tight to your 3lb cheeze it box while you slept

that's all.

peace.
