-If someone owns a personal luggage cart and a bungee cord they could bring them along. It could be loaded with half-a-dozen chairs and pulled along by one person, freeing up 5 other people's hands. Those with larger wheels are better as D.C.'s curbs were not kind to smaller wheeled devices in the Union Station area.
We will be able to keep things on the bus.

Oh My Goodness, I'm so excited!
We'll be down there in time to make it to the Divine Destiny event on Friday, but to late to get tickets. So if anyone has a way to get two extra tickets Please contact me. (585) 734-4988
I was on the waiting list, but decided to drive down instead.
I'll be heading down on Friday, spending the night in Maryland,
and then taking the Metro in the morning where I hope to meet up with the group.

For everyone that has a ticket there will be a seat for You (with Prior purchase of a bus ticket), the buses will be Full in Henrietta as that is the last pick up point.
You Do Not have to sign up to leave at either point of loading, all the info for the most part is above as stated or linked to.
Two questions: How do you know the bus isn't going to be full in Henrietta? Don't you have to sign up to depart from a certain area? Is there a special part of the website I haven't found to get updates.
I have a single ticket that my husband will not be able to use. If anyone is in need of a single ticket, please contact me to arrange for the pick-up.

Can any one give me a ballpark estimate of our return time to Eastview Mall? I need to arrange a ride. thanks!
The mandatory rest period is 10 hours
As soon as we can, but the law says that Bus drivers and Truck drivers have to have a specified rest period, I think 8 hours, so it will be around 5 or 6 August 28th. This is something we have no control or say about. It is the law. It is going to take a good 2 or 3 hours to get off the Mall, on the Metro and back to RFK anyways.
It appears that the 8/28 event is only scheduled from 10AM-1PM. Could someone tell me approximately what time the buses would be scheduled to leave DC to return to Rochester?
I believe I am going to be one of the many thousands to witness this spectacular event! We're one voice for America!
I rsvp'd yes - but we are not taking the bus. We are driving to Washington and then continuing south for a vacation afterward. I hope I am not messing up your count.....should I change to no?
My husband and I are driving down with our 2 kids. We are ging down on Friday and are very excited! We got a hotel roon about 7 miles from DC! Cant wait!
My husband, myself and my 9 and 11 year old will all be there. We are going from WIlliamsburg, VA though. We are spending our vacation there - living history lesson on the ideals and sacrifices made to establish and preserve our nation ! Not sure if there will be anyway to meet up with you all since the best info is on the right side of the Lincoln memorial.
My sister and I along with our daughters are driving down on Friday and staying until Sunday. We are very excited about going - I hope this is as big - if not bigger - than 9/12 was last year!
We would love to be able to meet up with others but are not sure how we would ever be able to do that? Any suggestions?
