The GSE Team arrived at Des Moines Airport on March 16th and were seen safely off by their families as well as by Alternate Team Leader Kitte (who is all but family now!) who provided each member with a bag of treats for the trip and District Governor Gary. We departed from Des Moines shortly after 3:00 and arrived in Dallas two hours later. Things appeared to be getting a bit dicey as flight to L.A. kept delayed but we did arrive with about 45 minutes to spare. We had a long (13 hour) flight on Qantas and everyone, with the possible exception of Ginger who watched three movies (you'll have to wait for another post for her reviews), managed to get a reasonable amount of sleep. St. Patrick's Day (the 17th) vanished completely somewhere over the Pacific as we lost a day along the way. Thanks to everyone for all your good wishes as embark on our great adventure! Next stop Auckland!
