Tournament of Roses Parade
This float was my favorite, but I enjoyed the bands most of all. One band was made up entirely of musical directors - 280 band teachers from all fifty states and Mexico - and it was AMAZING. Now I want to join all the bands and play all the music.
Rose Bowl
Utah lost, but only barely. It was by far the most exciting game I've ever watched, and such a cool experience just to be there.
To end our day, we had dinner at El Cholo in downtown Los Angeles with K, S, L and T, then drove back to the hotel and fell asleep in about six minutes.
So many great memories made today - what a happy first day of the year!
