Well Wednesday saw us leave the beautiful Troy area of NC and again say goodbye to our host families that we have come to get so close to. After a visit to the Indian Mounds and Community College, we made our last GSE presentation to a crowd of over 100 Rotarians. And i must say...We nailed it!!!.
After this we were collected from Ashboro and driven to Greensboro where we were met by our new host families and given the afternoon off. While some went to the movies, shopping and all sorts of other activities, others stayed at home, did some laundry and went out for dinner.
On Thursday, we spent the morning touring the Proximity Hotel (A very enviromentally friendly and Leeds Certified Hotel) and the International Civil Rights Museum. Both were very interseting and amazing to see.
After a lunch and a brief shopping stop, we went to an Ag College and a Dairy Farm where unfortunatly, Helen again did not get to milk a cow. Though we did see alot and saw the Dairy, but were on a time budget which did not allow the milking to begin in time.
Tommorrow we make the early trip to Ashville where we all hope we will get to see President Obama whilst he is on Vocation also.

What an amazing journey for six very deserving people. A photograph of the team with the President would be the icing on the cake! Good luck with your conference presentation this weekend. Love to y'all. 5 sleeps to go!
