travel day

Well, after a stressful day yesterday of running last minute errands and emotional goodbyes to the families, here we are. We have made it to the west coast. We sit on a curb at LAX patiently awaiting our bus to Bakersfield. We plan on eating a good dinner tonight and relaxing, which neither of us have done in quite sometime! Needless to say, we're both extremely stoked! We'll stay the night in Bakersfield, in an actual room instead of a tent ( : ) ) and then we will catch another bus to Lake Isabella tomorrow. There we will get our gear ready, again eat some more good, hot food, clean our tent, have another good night's rest at the campground. Finally on Tuesday, we will begin the hike. It's sinking in and we can't wait to get started! Woohoo
