California Trip 2008

This morning, we packed up the School ready for the next part of our trip to San Fran.

Brett kindly arranged for our luggage to be taken to the bus station for us, and as we were all walking to follow it, a bear popped up to say “Goodbye” from Yosemite.  It ran across the playing fields outside the school, then posed for photos, as you can see.

It made the trip complete, as it had still only been the staff who had seen a real bear, and not just scratches on a tree!

We have now made it safely to San Francisco, and have had a great evening soaking up the party atmosphere.  This was topped off by a fireworks display over the water, which we were able to watch from outside our Youth Hostel.  It was the best fireworks display I have ever seen, and with my pyrotechnics interests, I should know!! Stenton have a lot to live up to next year!!!
