Thursday- Free day!

Today was our free day so we got the chance to hang out and get some rest! Our morning started off by sleeping in! We slept in til about 9:30 when we had breakfast. We then went to our conference room and gave everyone the schedule for the day. After that we all loaded the bus and headed to DC. When we got to DC, we went to Union Station for lunch and then headed to the zoo for the rest of the afternoon.

The zoo was fun but my favorite, the otters, were asleep in their den. The other animals were okay, most were just lounging around. The elephant was on the scale and it weighed 5100 pounds! That's crazy!! We were at the zoo until 4:00 and then left to head to the baseball game. There was a lot of traffic so it took us forever to get back to Camden Yards, but we still got there early for the game.

The game was great! It was an awesome time to just hang out and relax. We watched the game but mostly hung out and talked! It was a great time to be with the students and just see what was going on in their lives for the week. I talked to a lot of them about what they had learned this week and what God was doing in their lives. I also got to know some of the students that I don't really know that well. The Orioles lost 6-3 so the home crowd wasn't very happy. We left the game at 10:30 and got back to the hotel and went straight to our rooms and then to bed!

Tomorrow night will be the last night that I blog in Baltimore, but you can keep track of where we are on Facebook as I will update my status throughout the day on where we are. I will also send out a calling post about an hour from our arrival at Graceland. If you could please listen to the call and be there when we arrive, that would be awesome! We love you and can't wait to see you!!! Goodnight!
