The Last Post for the Coral Ambassador's 2008 Blog.

This years tour to California was a great ministry to the people, and a blessing to the choir as well. There are many leaving, seniors, choir parents, and choir families (the Tatums). But despite all the sadness that this tour ended with, this tour was an amazing trip that we will remember for the rest of our lives. When you travel and live so closely with 48 people, you grow a bond that is unbreakable by distance or time. I hope that this blog will stay active, as a memory of the tour.

personal note:

This is the first time the blog has ever been done by members of the choir, it was an interesting experience trying to fit in practice and concerts while also trying to update the blog. But, despite many obstacles, the blog was written, pictures were uploaded, and concerts were performed. 

This is Kyle Curran, and personally, I can't wait until next years tour, and I hope I'll be able to help with the blog then too.

This Blog was a Group effort by three members of the Coral Ambassadors.

Joshua Sorensen - genuis and picture uploader

Buddy Chamberlin - another genuis, and picture uploader

Kyle Curran - not quite a genuis, but blog writer, creator, and picture uploader.

The Happy Ending of Coral Ambassador's 2008 Choir Tour.

The Banquet went beautifully: compliments, appreciation, stories, and tears were shared, skits were enjoyed, and the senior song was a big hit.  After the Senior Banquet, we went out to the bus and grabbed our luggage, (which our bus driver (Reggie Jones) unloaded for us!) and brought it to our hotel rooms. The following morning (the last morning of this tour) we woke up and ate breakfast at the hotel, loaded up the bus, and headed to Carmel. 

Carmel is a beautiful little beach town, filled with small tourist shops, cute cafes, and many antique stores. Once we arrived at Carmel, we walked down to the beach and had our devotions right on the beach. During this unique devotion time, we sang all acapella, and worshiped God with our voices right there on the beach. After the devotions, we walked down to the beach for a few pictures. We were then given a time limit and sent off to explore the town. After our little Carmel adventure, we headed for Covenant Village, Turlock, California.  Upon arrival we brought out the costumes and performed "Celebrate Life" for the last time on this tour. Almost immediately after finishing the concert we headed for San Fransisco Airport.
