We have gone on three band trips, all of them to the south. Of course, we always go to church on the Sunday we go home, and one thing that always strikes me is how welcoming people are to our kids, and to a group as large as ours. This was no exception. The church actually had to cancel their youth Sunday school to get prepared for us. The congregation, pastor, and music team could not have been nicer...they went out of their way to show the students they were happy they were there. The youth pastor really showed his pride in their church when after the service, he took me in the back in their brand new wing and showed me the room he was preparing for teenagers and their needs in the church...it had arcade games, a old style jukebox, everything. The old saying "southern hospitality" really is not just a saying.
We finished our time in Disney at the Hollywood Studios, formerly MGM. I think the kids liked this park the best, mainly because of the thrill rides Rock n' Rollercoaster (accelerates 0-30 in less then 3 seconds) and the Tower of Terror (drops you in an elevator shaft over and over until barf ensues). The shows are great too, with the the car stunt show and the Fantasmic show being highlights. We left at about 8:30 to head home.
