Several of us are going to Salzburg on our free weekend. I made our reservation last night for two nights in this fabulous city! Jill, Jackie, Rebecca and myself are going to take the train to a weekend of adventure!
There is a lot of paper work to take care of and I'm almost finished with what needs to be done. I have one more document to send to Joe and then I'm good. Another step in the process almost complete.

Orientation was Thursday, March 13th. We got to meet most of those who are going with us. We look like a mostly female group. We also got our housing assignments for the two weeks. There's still a lot to be done with paperwork to fill out and more passport like photos to be made. I need to get busy.
I've been working hard on getting the ball rolling at the middle school with the Green and Healthy Schools program. As soon as I can get a good group of Enviromental Club kids together we'll be ready to start our first inventory.
Our orientation is next week! Joe sent out a letter to all who are participating and we will meet at his office on Thursday, March 13th to fill out paperwork and hear what we need to know about traveling abroad. This is so exciting. Jill and I are hoping that we can room together.
Here's a helpful tip when traveling abroad. Scan all of your important documents into a file on your computer and then email to yourself. Should something get lost while traveling you can access all of your important documents anywhere you can gain access to a computer and your personal email!
Dr. Sam sent my name in to Dr. Baust!! It's official now!!! I get to go!!!!!! We leave in early July!! Some of the fun things we will be doing is touring the BMW plant in Munich and attending the opera "Tosca" at the Bregenzer Festspiele with the Vienna Symphony! We will also spend a night on the top of a mountain, Silvretta, and we'll visit what is left of a glacier.
