Day 11 Day Off/Travel Day

Somewhere between Montreal and Toronto. Coffee and a sandwich to start the day. Then more studying. Man, I’m not used to this. Guess it’ll become easier once I get into it. At least, I hope so.  Changed strings on my…

Day 10 Montreal

Damn, I thought we were driving off-road this morning. Insanely bumpy. Turns out we’re in Montreal. The roads here are truly shit.  Had what was left of my burger from yesterday for breakfast. And coffee, of course. Spent most of…

Day 9 Ottawa

Woke up to the (not-so) wonderful news that our tour manager/merch, Heather, didn’t get into Canada. Great – the most important person on our bus is not here! It just never ends… But instead of letting this drag us down,…

Day 8 Derry

Woke up at 7am. Why? Let me sleep.  Our tour manager/merch, Heather, went to Walmart and bought a coffee maker, so we had some real brewed coffee for breakfast. It’s so nice to have some routines and some sense of…

Day 7 Day Off

Still in Worcester. Very slow day. Got some actual coffee, which was nice. Made a grilled sandwich on the bus.  Went for a short walk. Pleasant weather. For dinner me, Tom and Heather (merch/tour manager) went to a Mexican place.…

Day 6 Worcester

Woke up really early again, but managed to get another couple of hours in. Breakfast on the bus was great. Studied a bit. Went for a coffee. I had my hopes up (my fault) and was disappointed. Again. But maybe…

Day 5 New York

Woke up at around 5am, which is to be expected when having an early night.  Breakfast on Pier 4. Beautiful view. Quiet.  Had an online meeting with a studies councellor. A second breakfast after that. Grilled cheese, ham and salami…

Day 4 Day off/Travel Day

We went to Walmart to stock up on bread, ham, cheese. Even bought a sandwich grill AND a smash burger grill.  Made a grilled ham and cheese sandwich. Yum. Also got me a 4-pack of Starbucks Vanilla Frappuccino. It’s not…

Day 3 Leesburg

Man, that was a bumpy ride. Woke up at a rest stop. Quick in and out. Bought a burrito and a Starbucks Vanilla ”coffee”. Not ideal breakfast, but what is one to do? Loooong bus ride today to Leesburg, Virginia. …

Day 2 Atlanta

Day off today. Slept until 9am. Had breakfast. Same as yesterday – we’re in the same hotel. Then back to bed, slept until 1pm. Shower. Made a cup of ”coffee” in the room.  Walked over to the venue. Very hot…
