This trip proved to be the busiest and most adventuorus to dateDespite looking a little bleary-eyed for most of the trip, the choir managed to pull off four wonderful concerts, all greeted by standing ovations from extremely appreciative audiences. The choir also found the time and energy to make the most of any opportunity to experience the delights of American culture. Particular highlights included tasting the local North Carolina beer (a mere 8.6%) found on tap in one of the host’s cellars, dining at the most popular Mexican joint in Lubbock and taking selfies with the New York City skyline from the top floor of the Yale Club, Vanderbilt Avenue. These experiences made all the 4am starts wothwhile, in a way.
