Spring Break Trip - Day 2

[Woke up at 0730 - finished taxes (and filed - whew!) - waited for kids to wake up (1000) - when they were finally ready, we drove over to Notre Dame and walked to Sacred Heart for Palm Sunday Mass (1145) - when it began, we walked in with everyone from Bond Hall with our palms and entered the church to find our seats had been taken - crammed in OK, though - the girls were impressed that all the college kids attended services - after it was over, we ate lunch at Subway at LaFortune Student Center (1325) - things looked different but I was able to navigate around OK - we walked around the campus for about an hour so I could show the kids my old haunts - it started to rain (sleet, actually) - we took shelter in Fitzpatrick Engineering Hall and ended up meeting a few girls who were engineering students - they gave girls a pep talk about attending the school - we ran back to the car in driving sleet (cold) - after that we drove around South Bend for awhile - we actually crossed Michigan border on IN-833 (old US-33?) - after showing them my old apartment and home, we drove back to the hotel room and waited out the rain for several hours - kids did homework - we ate at Culvers for dinner (1855), including some custard - kids were happy - weather had improved by this point, so we drove back to the campus again - we walked to the Grotto (lighting candles), and walked around Saint Mary's Lake for a short time - we later stopped by LaFortune and the Library for night time views of the campus - went back to hotel around 2200 - bed around 2330]
