SANFRANCISCO => NEW YORK => MANCHESTER, England - June 26-27, 2023
Day 1 - Start of the Journey
It was an early rise this morning but the excitement for the trip easily overcame the lack of sleep. The bus departed Santa Clara University at 5 a.m. which afforded us an extra half an hour sleep thanks to Ryan Merz (associate athletic director of compliance) catching the flight delay from the night before.
We flew out from San Francisco airport to JFK airport in New York for a three hour layover before the transfer into Manchester, England.
