Partying with the class of 2009 in the Old Port

Posted by admin on May 19, 2009 in Bus / Coach |

Had a nice run last night.  I say last night because it didn’t start until 1700hrs.  Had to drive up to Waterville (about an hour + North) to get roughly 400 Colby College graduates and take them down to Portland into the Old Port for a pub crawl.   There were 8 busses total and I have to say I had a pretty good night.  Had yet another unit I’d never driven before (pictures below).  One of the newer Setra’s and man did she drive nice!

I had done up a “party mix” CD before I left, and we cranked the tunes on the way down with literally the whole bus singing along!  We dropped them off in the Old Port just about 2100hrs, then the boss (owner of Northeast) who was driving last night as well, decided to take us all out to dinner at Texas Steakhouse in Scarborough.  Had an awesome meal of Prime Rib and steak fries and we had a roucus good time!

Got done with the meal and headed back to the Old Port… we were supposed to start picking them up at 2330 as they got ready to leave / filling busses as needed, but it was 0100 before they even called for the first bus.  I ended up being second in line to fill, and had to immediately call the boss for backup as I filled up in about 2 minutes flat with easily another 2 busses worth of people waiting at the pick-up point.

Drive them back to Waterville… only had two “poppers”… one at least made it into the provided air sickness bags!  The other one… well not so luckily for the cleaning crew this morning!  ROFLMAO

Got back to the barn at 0400 this morning from a pleasant uneventful run… even on the way back the drunks….err college graduates were singing and in good spirits / not causing any problems!
