As I arrived at Tim Horton's at 5:00 am I was very excited to get going. As the busses pulled up I saw a little bus and a big bus. Since I thought a small bus would be fun, I did not run to the big bus. As I boarded the smaller bus I noticed the seats were cramped and not intended for long trips. As I sat with my friends I again realized that I had sat in a bad seat but I pushed that to the back of my mind and focused on trying to sleep.

The first day was uneventful but as night came just about everyone on that bus except for the odd person had a horrible sleep. As I woke up I smelt smoke and heard Dave and Glen telling everyone to get off the bus. Our bus died on us. We had a very bad oil leak, but luckily we were close to an on-ramp with a McDonalds.

We probably stayed at that McDonalds for 4 hours and we envied the other bus people for we had been on our way to Six Flags and the other group got to keep going on.

We finally got to Six Flags and it was a blast. We slept at a church for the night. The next morning the group on the small bus boarded vans brought up from Mexico. They were a little more comfy that the mini bus os that was awesome.

I saw two naval bases. One was U.S. the other was Mexican. The Mexican army was also checking for drugs in the mountains and they're police force is sweet. I am looking forward to the rest of the trip.

PS We get the big bus on the way home.
Woot.
