Rochester Institute of Technology
Great visit so far. They had a large deaf student population here, over twenty-five percent. The largest deaf main streaming school in the country.
The have a brother in the chapter that has a gadget surgically implanted in his head to help him hear and they call him gizmo, funny stuff.

Niagara Falls
AMAZING
Saw the falls at night, then drove down the Niagara River the next morning, saw the whirl pool, the huge power plants and saw where the Niagara river meets Lake Ontario of the Great Lakes. Then took the scenic way to Rochester, New York.
Lucky you, you get two random facts today:
Trivia 1-Did you know that Niagara Falls is never at full capacity because the divert a lot of the water, it is at about 50%, at best 75% capacity at any time. It has not been at full capacity in about a hundred years.
Trivia 2-Did you know that after Niagara Falls that the Niagara River flows north.

TOWED/MOVED
Ah my car got towed today, they just move your car instead of towing it. So I spent two and half hours trying to find it. Then when I found it I had a $100 ticket waiting for me.
TIP OF THE DAY: Make sure you read all of the street signs before you park somewhere.

Washington College

Nice school I got to stay in a room that was in the Student Center, so I walk out my door and their was the Post Office and students walking through to go to class.

Navy Game
Cool to see all the midshipmen at the game, it was like a quarter of the stadium in all of their uniforms. At the end of the Game they came over the loud speaker and announced that all the mid shipman could stay out until 0200 which I thought was cool. They got their curfew extended because of their spirit during the game.

Flight to Philly
The Flight was good, almost missed it though because of having lunch with Mario!!
Well he missed his last flight because they oversold his flight. I guess since last time he missed his flight last time, I might miss mine, no such luck cause they oversold my flight as well, but I made it just in time.
On to Widener I go, get to go back to Philly to see that adorable (monkey) kid again.
