Preparation continues.... 27 days to departure


Well, at least I think we have 27 days... after Swedish class last night, we met as a group hoping to find out that our airline tickets had been purchased but not yet.... We're also still trying to get someone to send us an example of their powerpoint presentation so we can finalize ours. (Those who know me well will realize that this late in the game, not having our presentation ready is STRESSING ME OUT!!)
Anyway, we plug on with our preparations... clothes are almost all purchased (still trying to find that allusive pink blouse that I need to complete my "team uniform"). We have ideas for our host family gifts (thanks RWSC for the 100th Anniversary photo books - - they will be AWESOME gifts! along with hopefully some RW Confectionary chocolates and some handmade
note cards).
The most recent challenge is the whole communication / electrical thing.... trying to figure out what kind of adapter / convertor I will need so I can run my laptop and update my blog / add pictures / etc during my trip.
Attended another Red Wing Rotary meeting today -- what an awesome group!! They are all genuinely excited for me and my upcoming adventure and I can't wait to share my experiences with them when I return.
