For three weeks in April/May 2009 four intrepid adventurers will embark on a Rotary sponsored GSE (Group Study Exchange) from Sydney Australia to Arizona in the USA. So without any further ado, let the blogging begin....

Lake Havashu (Post Spa Bath extravagance!)

G'day All,

Mmmm I feel so relaxed..... Jen and I were just spoiled by a wonderful home cooked meal by our host family (Dean and Martha), as a result I am considering pursuing a newly realised dream to become a professional wood fire pizza chef... having been instumental in insuring that tonights dinner was successful... although Martha, Jenny and Dean also did help to some lesser extent ;-)

I then was able to relax in a wonderfully relaxing spa bath (while Jen demonstrated her superior leadership skills by beginning the process of charting our travels on a google map.... she is definitely the "geek" of the team, despite her protestations, and this proves it !)

We all had a terrific day again in Lake Havashu. Of particular note was Jenny sucking up to Don the owner of a local Dairy Queen and Rotary denizen when she gave his restaurant a free plug on her very entertaining radio interview.... he was very appreciative (which may be of benefit later on in the week !)

Denises Shopping odyssey continued again today with a highly anticipated trip to Walmart, and more barbies to add to her substantial collection (the dolly... not the outdoor oven!)

Watch out for GSE Barbie who is now accompanying the team in a very stylish brown dress ensemble which like all team apparel fully meets Denise's approval!

As always Ainsley has been the cool and calm voice of reason. Thank heavens theres one sensible team member... (she can bail us out !)

Jenny's google map will be growing as our journey continues and can be found at:

Check back in with it from time to time.

I'm off to bed (as there's heaps more fun to come tomorrow !)

I'll check back in soon,

Andrew
