Minor Hockey Moments

Fun by the busload

Ten years in minor hockey and we've never done this before.
It's not unique for teams to pay the big bucks to charter a bus, but teams my son has been on have always opted for the flexibility of car conveys to out-of-town tournaments.
I'm not sure what to expect travelling by highway coach. I haven't done it since my poverty days of university since the train to Toronto or flights are more civilized ways to travel when a car isn't the right choice.
It'll be noisy, I expect, but perhaps maybe less so thanks to Ipods.
It'll be whiney. It's 11 hours of driving to Nashville, plus however long it takes to clear US customs at Detroit. Nerves are bound to be frayed.
Nevertheless, we're looking forward to it and approaching it all with a sense of humour and adventure.
Who knows, maybe we'll even win some hockey games.
