Finish of Day 2, and all of Day 3.

Day 2 ended wonderfully, the concert went very well, and the audience was thankful and full of appreciation. We then changed, packed up, and headed home to the host families.

The Coral Ambassadors started the day bright and early at United Methodist Church. Our wonderful worship team led the entire choir in praise and worship. Our fearless Devotions Leader (Mark Newsom) then proceeded to lead us in one of a series of devotions he had specially prepared for us, for this choir tour. I, unfortunately had to leave near the middle of it to assist with the loading process... but I could see the positive effects of the devotions on the choir as they boarded the bus. (unfortunate because I had to leave, not because I went to help)

The choir was able to leave the church afterwards feeling recharged and ready to go to see the Biltmore Mansion!

We arrived at the Biltmore at around 12:45, and proceeded to eat lunch, which was a terrific picnic. (we had stopped by a BBQ place before arriving and picked up our pre-ordered meal.)

After finishing up lunch and driving through the lengthy tree filled roads ( a series of driveways) that led to the mansion. The choir then entered the Biltmore mansion and started the tour. We were able to see almost all of the of the mansion, along with the garden, a bass pond, and the beginnings of a wedding.

We left the Biltmore Mansion and headed for food, TGIF (but it's saturday... so TGIS maybe?) to be specific. We had ordered earlier that morning with our chaperones and they did a wonderful job of sending in our orders and making sure everyone got what they wanted.

After a slightly early yet satisfying dinner, we headed off to Cedar Springs Presbyterian.

We arrived safely after a semi long bus ride, and quickly spread out to our various host families to spend the night.

In the morning (a few hours...) we will be joining their youth choir in singing for the sunday service.
