At the time of the field trip my best friends hadn't graduated yet. And another girl roomed with us who I was just getting to know. This was a great setting for me because I could be with my best friends while also meeting a new person. Me and my friends even set up a great secret Santa gift exchange for the people inside our room for the duration of the trip. This was really fun and it was great to help us learn more about each other. I got my best friend named Leslie and even though I thought I knew everything she liked I learned even more and was able to get her a couple small gifts I knew that she would really enjoy. These friendships are really what made the field trip fun.
One of the things that the field trip planners excelled at was planning. There were all sorts of fun things to do once we got there including going to Walt Disney World and other attractions like Knotts Berry Farm. It was extremely fun and kept the trip exciting. However, never once did I feel overwhelmed. This was because of the impeccable planning. The planners made it so there was plenty of time to rest but also enough time to have lots of fun. This was very successful and meant that the students could have lots of fun without feeling exhausted or out of energy.
The other thing that made this trip special was simply what we went to California to do. We were there to be one of the few bands to march in the Rose Bowl Parade. It was extremely hard to get into the parade and the fact that a high school band was in there was amazing all by itself.

All together it was a great trip and it was the most successful and fun field trip I have ever been on!
