Day 5 Approacheth

D Block, you are staring straight at the last day of your journey, when you will either reach your destination, or end up somewhere out on the road, out of money, out of gas, out of luck. C Block, you've still got Day 4 as well, but the end is in sight for you as well. The required posting for the final day, whenever you reach it, is a little different than what you're used to. Since you have the whole experience to look at, in total, I want each partner in the car to write a full 500 words and to focus on the whole experience. It of course should include some context: what happened the last day, either success or some kind of failure. But it should also look at the whole journey and the lessons you learned about being on the road on your own. How might you approach the daily ritual differently now that you've done it once? What surprised you? What kinship with the Joads did you feel?
