We began the trip at 9:30 last night. Everybody started out being hyper and thinking they would stay awake for the entire ride. We were doubled up in every seat, so everyone always had someone to talk to.
The first break was at 11:30 p.m. and lots of people had managed to stay awake thus far. After a half hour, we were back on the road.
