Hi everyone,
We've learned so much in the last five days, particularly about the inner workings of the disability sector in the US.
We've visited the Old West town of Wickenburg, toured the Senate and Arizona's old Capitol building, met with Arizona's Governor, Jan Brewer, and presented to four Arizona Rotary Clubs.
Vocational visits have included the Disability Resource Center at Arizona State University, Arizona Bridge to Independent Living, Wings of Grace (riding program for people with disabilities) and the AmeriServe day programme in Wickenburg.
The food and the hospitality here has been second to none and we are having lots of fun scaring the locals with Vegemite tastings!
We've christened our transport vehicle 'The Party Bus' and given several of our host family members uniquely Australian names including: "Gazza", "Rando" and "Dono".
A busy but very exciting time is being had by all.
Jenny
