Mississippi Ambassador Trip – Entry One - Bridgwater & Taunton College

Friday morning, and the group of fourteen, dressed in their matching Mississippi hoodies, loaded suitcases on to the minibus ready for the first leg of the trip to Mississippi USA!

There wasn’t much shopping to be done at Heathrow Terminal 5, with only Chanel, Prada, Rolex etc. to choose from, but with only half an hour delay, the group of Student Ambassadors and Bridgwater & Taunton College staff boarded the plane ready for the ten hour flight to New Orleans.

Many films later and after many questions asked at Border and Customs Control, the students exited Louis Armstrong airport to a wall of heat, and promptly the hoodies came off. Eight o’clock in the evening and glorious warmth – perfect.

Despite being three in the morning UK time, everyone tucked into pizza and Coke at the overnight hotel and then it was definitely time for bed, after nearly 24 hours of being awake!
