When we arrived at the designated location for the bus, we were handed a handout indicating that the returning buses would leave at 2:30 pm not 4:00 as advertised. The coordinator got on our bus and apologized for the confussion on the return time. He asked if we wanted to leave at 4 and most if not all on my bus said yes and he said that is what would happen. He later got back on and said that the busses had to leave the course at 2:30 and again apologized! The buses finally left the lot at 7:45 am, late! The bus I'm on is the lead bus and went north from LSL to Raniy Trail to 301. The driver turned north and made a u-turn in Sherwin Williams parking lot. We finally got on I75 south at 8:00 am. We "should" arrive by 10 am. We will see less that 4 hours of the tourament and will be on the busses for 4 hours!




Good grief! I don't like bus trips anyway, that would make me so frustrated!
