My DS has an overnight visit coming up for USMA. We live only about 75 minutes away, but I believe he said he had to report at 6:30am, so we'll probably spend the night...just head up after school and take in some of that fine Highland Falls cuisine for dinner.
But when he gets there at 6:30am, what should I plan to do all day? We talked about taking two cars and me just leaving, but not sure if there are worthwhile things to do as a parent? I took the tour over the summer but that was only about 1.5 hours.
I like to mountain bike, so if the weather isn't terrible (been warm here lately), I could do that for a bit.
What did other parents do on their Overnight Visits?
If we went up the day before, I guess I would need a hotel room for 2 nights, ie second night for myself while he's in the barracks.
Thank you.
