Williamsburg, VA (USA)

[up very early - ate breakfast and drover Mollie to her school for the orchestra field trip (I was chaperone) at 0600 - we ended leaving school close to 0700 and rode in bus for around three hours to Newport News - the kids performed three songs for judges there and we watched a high school from Loudon County play - then we drove to Busch Gardens in Williamsburg, eating lunch on the way - we were at the theme park from about 1300 until 2000 - with an awards ceremony, volunteering at the first aid center and dinner mixed in, I didn't see Mollie a lot but got to talk to her friends and other parents - the bus ride home took another three hours and we were not at my apartment until midnight]
