7/31/09 - ? We finally arrived at the Rydges Resort and it is sweet!! The place is so big and really nice. We have suite rooms with a queen and a full and two pull out couhced. We saw a movie, "Space Cowboys" for the 4th time. I ended up skipping that and mingling with more of my friends getting closer to many of them.

There was some interesting social happenings happening in the many social circles. The day started off with a rocky start but it ended up being very good. We had our longest travel day so far, almost 7 hours. That really sucked - my ass was in a ton of pain and there was some difficulty holding it until we got to a place to relieve yourself even though there was a bathroom on the bus. Jordan used it 8 times with an average of 15 minutes each use.

Also, Jenn was caught by the security people for walking on the roof. She got in loads of trouble. Well, I don't have too much else to say other than Nick C, Derek D, and Brian R were my new roommates.
