Day 2164. I was so very tired when everyone was getting up this morning as it had been close to 2 am before I had gone to bed. I didn't even want to get up at all and lay back down until everyone was ready. Then we went to the breakfast room. We were the only ones there, and breakfast was very simple with few choices - nothing like the hotel in Dallas.
Day 2163. This morning Sammy was up first, then Randy, while Tammy and Emmy were fast asleep next to me. After a while we also got up and got dressed to go downstairs for breakfast which ended at 9 am. It was weird to be the only ones in the breakfast room given how full it had been the last few days.
