New Havasu City... a Desert Oasis

G'day All,

Well, we've been in Lake Havasu City for over a day now... and I've got to say, as much as Phoenix was AWESOME.. Lake Havasu City ROCKS (quite literally, there was stuff about the mining of Silver and Gold in the Lake Havasu City museum that filled us in on the intricacies of mining in the mid 18th Century).

The Party Bus was particularly full today, and, although somewhat quiter at times (due to one of our number... namely Denise, shopping half the day!) suitably raucus :-)

Martha and Deano (the host family for Jenny and I) have been amazingly cool, and have been very understanding of my Australian idiosyncracies (namely, love of vegemite, cricket, and a tendency to talk a million 'miles' an hour!)

It's been truly terrific to meet the (what seems like) 'millions' and 'millions' of Arizonan Rotarians, that have shared their wonderful country with us :-)

Hoo Roo (for now)
Andrew

PS. Because I'm such a slacko and this is my first blog (Jenny is such a swot!) I wanted to give a quick shout out to Vince and Sue, my host family in Phoenix. They are two of the loveliest people I have ever had the pleasure of getting to know. Thankyou :-)
