My adventure is getting closer and closer. In under 24 hours, I will be on my way to Minnesota. It'll be a long van ride, that's for sure- but. . . I'm used to it. It might seem crazy, but I have actually been on road trips before that were just as long.
For a few years growing up, I remember that I attended Lions' Camp for kids with visual impairments. The camp was originally located in Carbondale, Illinois- and that meant all the campers were piled on a school bus with practically no air conditioning for about 6 long hours, only making one stop during the entirre trip. For me, this wasn't easy, because I had to ascend and descend those awfully large stairs. The really low part of this experience was that I was one of a few campers who had multiple disabilities- needing a great deal of assistance at camp.
The majority of the other campers, A good majority of the other campers at this particular camp only had visual limitations. Very few of us also had physical limitations on top of being legally blind.
