Bula, from your very enthusiastic trip leaders, Karen and Cliff!
This blog is a place for you to post photos, tell stories and share your experiences with friends and family back home. Send your loved ones this link so they can see and read about the places that your adventurous spirit is taking you.
Throughout our semester, each of you will have the opportunity to post to this blog, documenting our journey for the world to see. Blogger is one of four roles that each of you will fill as the semester progresses. There are four other roles, and you’ll have at least one turn in each. They are Hot Wheels – arranging transportation, Cribs – organizing our housing, Clark Kent – who reports on the news from near and far, Regulator – making sure any loose ends are tied up, and finally El Capitan – the person who pulls it all together and MC’s group meetings.
Sharing the responsibility for success will help our group build a tight-knit community, and help each of you develop great travel skills.
Reminder: We are meeting at the Tom Bradley Terminal in LAX, at the Air Pacific counter. We’ll gather there at 5:30 pm and reconvene at that spot every hour until our entire group is together. Also, you DO NOT need $150 in cash for a train ride . . . if you don’t know what we’re talking about, don’t worry about it.
We’re looking forward to an educational journey with you, full of adventure, smells, toil, sights and laughs. Hopefully you’ve already had a chance to read through the itinerary. For now, eat the foods you love, hug your families and pets, and pick up those last minute travel-essentials. Next stop, Fiji!
Peace,
Karen and Cliff
