The final blog...

Hey all,

Was it really just a two weeks ago we were sweating buckets in the intense Port Douglas heat, and exploring a totally foreign underwater world? Seems so distant as all of a sudden it gets dark at 4:00 and we are surrounded by all this snow...

How can one sum up such an incredible three months, the journeys we went on, the people we have encountered, the changes we have undergone. Needless to say this was the trip of a lifetime, for us leaders as much as for you as students. From the Bula's in Fiji to the G'days in Australia with some of the Hongi in between we truly have had some remarkable experiences. Throughout our time together you have all worked so hard and contributed so much and we wanted to say how great it has been, how proud we are.

Now that the culture shock is subdued, and we have had some much needed TLC from mom, we hope you all take some time to reflect on our recent travels.

A hearty thanks to all the readers who have been subscribing to this blog along the way and to all those who have taken part in sending us on this amazing adventure.

We look forward to hearing from all of you as you continue to learn and grow through whatever your next step is. We wish you all the best in your lives and all of your future travels.

Happy Holidays!

Much Love (and Lunch)

Drew and Karen

  1. Thank you Karen and Drew. Your guidance during Fall '08 semester was many things, especially loving. Thanks for bringing everyone back in one piece. My daughter Alana has experienced life in a way that can only be seen the way you did it...and does she have stories to tell! May the New Year bring you some of what you seek. - Marc Wortsman
