Notre Dame

What a whirlwind of a weekend. We arrived in Chicago Friday morning and drove into South Bend, Indiana home of the Fighting Irish. We were welcomed to Indiana with snow. I mean lots of snow, more than I have ever seen. We spent the day Friday looking at the campus and then going to the pep rally. We ventured out to some local bars that night. On Saturday we went back to campus to check out some more sights and then to the game. We arrived at the stadium and found our seats. The bleachers were covered in snow. Our feet sat in snow for the whole game. Nothing could prepare us for how cold it was. I think the temperature was about 21 or 22 degrees. It was freezing. We shivered through the whole game and found that the bathrooms had heaters so several trips to the bathroom were needed to defrost. It was an amazing experience despite the cold and the score. We ended up losing the game but to get to do something I have always dreamed about it made up for it.
