Home Sweet Home



"Three days already? But we just got here!" Is the question that swims through everyone's mind. We have all had such a wonderful trip here in Washington DC and no one wants it to end. But at the same time everyone wants to go home and sleep in for as long as they can. Everyone is tired after our packed schedule during the last three days but everyone is having so much fun that they want to stay. But here we are, about to go back home to Reading, Massachusetts. 

The eighth graders fill the busses either half asleep or going crazy. A long drive to the airport awaits us and we all charge up our phones so we have a full battery for the airport. Almost everyone has used all of there data from the lack of wifi on the busses. Just about everyone is wearing some sort of Washington DC apparel or has some souvenir. There was even an explosion of candy.  

We finally arrive at the airport and check our bags and go through security. It took a lot longer than expected so we were a while behind schedule. Miraculously we made it to our flight on time after stopping at a store for snacks. We all waited to board our flight. It took a while to get our luggage but it extended our fun in the airport. After that was over, we went on the buses and it was time to go back to Parker for our parents to come pick us up. Finally, it's time to go home and sleep after our very tiring, long, exciting trip. Good bye DC!
