20. all I can say is I Did It!

It was sooo packed and my biggest concern was just making it to the right bus. So all I did was walk along with everyone and blow my whistle and play my tambourine whnever it was time to make noise.
That first wave of noise after the moment of silence was so amazing. It took a couple of minutes for everyone to get quiet but then they did, and then the scream started from the back and you could hear it coming! It was sooo cool, it was like a 2 or 3 mile screamwave!!
As much as I hate plastic and know water is like gold I loved those big tanks of water with the people handing out little cones to get water in. Also the big screens there were 3 or 4 of. My immediate thought was "what a waste," but they were so cool.
There were a lot of vegan groups and signs.
This guys was my favorite, vegan and childfree, so perfect, dreamguy <3 could not be more perfect.
