The Trip of a Lifetime

We spent a long time dreaming and preparing for this wonderful trip to Australia!!!! The team was on the go from the moment we stepped on Australian soil and didn't stop until we were back home again. I remember reading the itinerary of all the wonderful places we were going to visit and all the exciting things we would experience, like the rainforest, breakfast with the animals(we didn't actually eat with them; although I did eat a couple of them for dinner one evening), Bondi Beach, the great-barrier reef, etc. The most exciting experience for me was meeting wonderful people from all over the world and sharing this special dragonboat event with them. I even made two new friends from differrent countries who I will keep in contact with. I can't wait until 2009 for the next World-wide Breast Cancer Regatta!!! ~ Trish Alden
