Sorry its late... but here it is :)
So, we’re officially onto the last leg of our amazing trip. We woke up at about 6 this morning......got everything packed up (new record, by the way J), ate a simple breakfast of cereal and bread, packed some lunches, waved good-bye to our awesome new friend Darren and hit the road. Everything ran smoothly....we drove through the beautiful Napa Valley and saw a bunch of wineries. There were a lot of incredible homes, limos, and hills upon hills of grapes. We also saw orange trees and fields of sunflowers. On other side of the valley we hit the freeway again and met the busiest traffic we’ve seen yet as the highway branched off to Sacramento. The highway led us through desert area and we watched the temperature climb to a balmy 37 degrees Celsius....that’s right....Celsius! It was amazing! Also, as per our last blog, Forrest Gump got watched twice today.....we’ll have to see how that one pans out over the next three days J. Many of us slept along the way (being woken up at 6 does not go over so well J). We drove along the Rogue River and wound up here in Medford where we plan to stay over until Monday morning when we will head back Canada. The campsite here is beautiful, as it is fairly close to Rogue River. When we arrived, the mom’s and a few of the girls started cooking hamburger and chopping veggies for the tacos we planned to have for supper. It was delicious J. A group of us went floating down the river on air mattresses that were purchased at the local drug store. Fun stuff! The night should still hold some exciting activities. Rumours of kick the can or capture the flag have been floating around. But until tomorrow, sleep tight, and God bless! G’night.
