Rotary GSE to Denmark. A good friend and colleague of mine sowed a seed about applying for a Rotary GSE (Group Study Exchange) trip to Denmark. After a lot of thought and research I applied. Two weekends ago was our district's GSE team member's selection weekend. It was an intense couple of days in Taupo filled with numerous surprise activities each with a purpose for the selection panel to observe and make notes to aid their immense selection task. .

Wednesday we said goodbye to our hosts - new friends and families in Aarhus, boarded the train and traveled to Esbjerg on the West Coast. We gathered together at Jon og Dittes Hus for a BBQ dinner.

It is now 6:15am and almost everyone is still sleeping. I can't believe I am up already.second day in a row! We had a wonderful time in Copenhagen yesterday. A friend of Debbie's from when she went to school in Denmark (back in the great year of 1978) was our personal tour guide. She met us as we got off the tog (train). We started off by walking along the longest pedestrian mall in the world. It seemed like the shops went on forever! 160;Obviously safety issues here are not as strict! The tour gave...

What an awesome weekend. It was our last planning get-together before we fly out and what better way to spend it that in gorgeous Gisborne. We awoke to spectacular views overlooking the farm out to the Pacific Ocean, sun streaming down. WOW! Beautiful, absolutely beautiful. I can now fully appreciate Sandra's passion for her home. Thanks Sandra and Rob for sharing your slice of paradise with us and for your fine hospitality! Check out our fantastic merino icebreaker tops! Sunday, August 02, 2009.

Denmark GSE 2009: Wednesday 30th September
http://dknzgse09.blogspot.com/2009/10/wednesday-30th-september.html
Today, we had again the priviledge to see inside the doors of a company that would not allow 'ordinary' people in for a tour. I have so many fond memories of my youth which involved Lego, and I felt like a big kid today. The Lego Group, Lego Factory and Idea House. Again, production here was hi-tech. Lego is made by an injection molding process. In the factory we were in, there were 760 molding machines! It was a top day. Goodness, not many days of the tour left now. It has gone so fast. Oct 2nd-5th: ...

Goodbye Ry hello Horsens! A bit sad for us all this morning as we say goodbye again to wonderful friends who we have become very close to over the past 6 days! Its not hard to feel a special bond with people who are so generous sharing their families and homes and stories with us. We look forward to catching up with many of you at Horsens next Friday night, and introducing you to our other 'adopted' families from Esberg and Århus. I can just hear a certain team member saying "Yay, its party time! The fac...
