Riding the Bus

The kids and I got to go to an SU Basketball game last weekend. It was one of those special days with Daddy. We tried to find a parking spot close to campus. But, it seems like more and more streets are being blocked off and parking isn't allowed. After driving around for a while, we decided to park near Manley Field house and take the free bus ride to campus.

The kids really like to ride the bus and riding this particular bus reminded them of their trip to New York City. Gung-gung, their grandfather, took them on a trip to Manhattan and they took a bus from Grand Central to Central Park. This bus ride was much shorter and much cheaper (i.e. FREE!).

The bus rides to the game and from the game were both lots of fun. On the ride back, both girls ended up picking the exact same seats. They liked to have "assigned seats."

Once we got to the Dome, the kids had a lot of fun. They kept trying to look for "The Funny Orange Guy," which is Otto the Orange, SU's mascot. Of course, once I pulled out the camera, both girls wanted to take a picture. I, of course, had to take a picture of them first.

After the game was over, I asked them both what the most fun part was. They both answered "The bus ride!!" I asked them again, hoping to get some response about the basketball or the dome or the court. They answered, "The game was boring, but the popcorn and lemonade was fun!"
