Mission: Arrive Safely!

Well, we made it alive. Mission: survive plane ride alive... complete! It was a quick trip to New York City. We had to go from one end of the terminal to the other but we made it in no time. Then we made friends with someone who was going to Ithaca, too. He's a student here!

We boarded our flying bus (yes, it was that small) and waited....and waited. We left about 45 minutes late! Not so pleasant. The flight was pretty quick. Meg and Melani had some lovely commentary on the descent that was less than smooth. It was like a really rickety roller coaster. Oh well! The regional airport is approximately half the size of the Bridgewater Campus Center. For those readers not familiar with BSC, the airport is smaller than the length of a football field and looks like an elementary school!

Our shuttle was there to pick us up and bring us to our lovely hotel! The hotel is quite nice! We settled in and grabbed lunch down the street at College Town Bagels The sandwiches were enough to feed and army so we brought the leftovers back.

Meg and Melani have started the ROLI program and I'm about to go meet the Case Study Coordinator to get a few things situated and then present the Case Study program to the ROLI students.

That's it for now.

Meg and Melani should be posting about their experience sometime tonight! Stay tuned!
