Well, our travel from Tulsa to Lansing was a long ride. We watched a couple of movies (the boys weren't too fond of Hannah Montana), ate breakfast at McDonald's, and landed in Lansing at about 4:00 pm. Michigan State University has such a pretty campus.
The kids were just so excited to see an actual college. From there we registered and went into our dorms. The best part about that was that WE HAVE NO AIR CONDITIONING. Now, seeing as we're in Michigan, maybe they're not used to having this hot weather. Nevertheless, it was 90 degrees outside today and our rooms were about 20 degrees above that. We are having so much fun and tonight was our Opening Ceremony. This is just like the Olympics where students from all of the different teams get to walk around in a parade and show off their country or state's flag. Below are pictures of that ceremony.
There were students from South Korea, Singapore, Russia, Poland, China, Mexico, Cuba, and almost all 50 states. It was an amazing experience seeing kids from all over together in one room! Caitlin and Alex got to walk for our two Oklahoma teams.
There was also a laser show at the end of Opening Ceremony. We were so tired when we got back to our dorm rooms so we went to bed kind of early tonight.
