Travels with the Choir ß ß
When I was a student at SU I was in the
Hendricks Chapel Choir. One of the
great things about being in the choir
was how many concert tours we had. ß ß
When I joined in 1975 we were planning
to go to Europe during the summer of
1976. That was a four week tour, and we
went through seven countries. ß ß
In 1977 we spent a week driving across
the midwest. We even got to visit the
Kellogg's factory and see how CornFlakes are made. ß ß
1978 was a "hometown tour" of New York,
New Jersey, and Connecticut. We did
this during spring break. ß ß
In 1979 we went on a three week summer
tour across the United States. We sang
in nine cities, but our favoriteconcert was our last one. It was at
Disneyland. ß ß
The New England "hometown tour" of 1980
was my last tour with the HCC. I didn't
go to Disney World with them in 1981. ß ß

Lesson 26: Short Essay #2
Remember, only press b at the end of each
paragraph or after a really short line.The European Tour
The 200th birthday of the United States
was in 1976, and we decided to
celebrate by going to Europe and
singing American music.
We flew out of Montreal to Copenhagen
the day after SU's graduation. Our
first concert was in the little Danish
town of Frederikshavn.
We took the train to Germany, where we
were guests of the Bremen town choir
and had a joint concert with them. Then
we had a bus for the rest of the tour.
In Holland we sang in Amsterdam. In
France we sang in Paris, Chartres, and
Strasbourg. When we got to Italy we
sang in Florence and Rome. We also got
to sing for Vatican Radio. Our last
concert was in Geneva, Switzerland.
But it wasn't all singing. We got to
have fun too. We went to Tivoli Gardensin Denmark, toured the canals of
Amsterdam, got to see the Eiffel Tower,
and climbed the leaning tower of Pisa.
We all had a great time.

Lesson 27: Short Essay #3
Remember, only press b at the end of each
paragraph, or after a very short line.Joanie's Clothes
One of the funniest things to happen in
Europe was Joanie losing her clothes.
She didn't lose all her clothes. Just
the ones she needed for concerts.
Joanie had left her concert clothes at
the hotel in Belgium. The hotel people
told us they'd send the clothes to our
next stop, but we never saw them again.
It wasn't a big problem at first. For
the next few concerts there was always
a girl who was sick, so Joanie would
wear that girl's clothes. But in Italy
we had a problem. No girls were sick.
Fortunately Dennis was. So for the rest
of the concerts she wore his clothes.
It was funny trying to pass her off as
a guy because her hair was down to her
waist, but a lot of guys had really
long hair back then.
It didn't fool the Italian audiences.
When the concerts were over, they'd
immediately run up to check her out.
I guess they knew a girl when they saw
one.

Lesson 28: Short Essay #4
Remember, only press b at the end of each
paragraph, or after a very short line.Too Much Food
Most people talk about suffering from
jet lag when they travel to or from
Europe. I didn't have that problem at
all. My problem was food lag.
We had breakfast in Syracuse at 7:00
our time. Then on the drive to Montreal
we stopped for lunch around noon. At
6:00 we had dinner at the airport.
That seems just fine, but when we got
on the plane we started crossing
different time zones and getting their
meals.
They served us breakfast about an hour
before we landed in Amsterdam. Then on
the flight from Amsterdam to Copenhagen
we got breakfast again. Once we got to
our hotel and unpacked, it was noon
Danish time and lunch was waiting for
us at a nearby restaurant.
Denmark is six hours ahead of us, so itwas 6:00 in the morning by Syracuse
time. This meant that we'd eaten six
full meals in less than 24 hours.
That's just too much food. Even for me.
