Apparently, it was a long day of riding on the bus!!!!!
Journal Entry:
 
   Today was a looooong travel
day! Because we had to leave at six in the morning, many people took many snoozes on the bus! Some of the highlights of the day included many bonding experiences and being able to see the corn palace in the evening. My new friends and I are learning so much, I feel so lucky to be able to take part in this bus trip!

TTFN,
Sarah K. (York First)
Corn palace - Mitchell, SD
We stopped at a "corny" place called the Corn Palace.  All the dec-"ear"-ations are parts of corn - stalks, husks, tassles, etc.  The Corn Palace is the only one of its kind in the world.

Alex Stover (York First) finds the perfect gift at the Corn Palace, but decides that he SHOULD NOT purchase it!!! Look closely at the handle!
York First Group          Black Rock Group
The York First and Genesis groups found a wagon in front of Bonanza, our dinner stop.  It was a great setting for a group picture.
