Zach and his 5th grade class with Mr. Teuscher got to go on a field trip up to Park City to the Olympic Park. yesterday for the entire day. We left the school at 8:30 and Zach and I rode up in our van because the bus was full and several other parents and kids drove their own vehicles as well! We got up to the Olympic Park and toured the museum for awhile, then everyone piled on the bus and we drove up the mountain several miles to the Bobsled venue.
The kids got to see the runs and where they start from and they took turns sitting in one of the actual bobsleds that were used during the Olympics that they have there for decoration. After everyone had a turn in the bobsled, we piled back onto the bus and went back down the hill a little further and stopped at the Ski Jump venue! What an amazing and incredible view! You could see for miles and miles from the top. The wind was cold and blowing so hard that we didn't stay to long. We rode the bus back down to the museum and went into another lodge building next door and ate lunch! It was so fun! Zach and I stayed a little bit longer and walked around the museum again and went up onto the 2nd floor which we had not seen earlier. After about an hour we decided to head home, I had to pick up Ashley at 2:45 from school and I didn't want her waiting. It was a nice day and I was so glad I had the chance to spend the day with Zach and do something together that we had never done before!
