After weeks and weeks of back and forth emails mainly as a source of entertainment progress was finally made last night. Last thursday night one of our team members flew in from Hong Kong and was quickly found under the influence of every night spot in Sydney and decidedly worse for ware. So the initial plan of a friday afternoon meeting looked like a pipe dream. Gus was attending a dinner and his proxy votes had been given to me I went to the Oaks Hotel in Neutral Bay for what I thought would be our initial meeting to nut a few plans. Well after talking garbage and socializing with to many girls and reliving so many memories we soon realised that a visit to the pie shop was the only good bit of planning to come out of the night. That and the resolution the Dr Dre should be our road trip theme CD.
High demand for a meeting saw the collaborative brain power of our yet to be named group of 5 push other things aside in order to actually plan something before Will returns to Hong Kong. Wednesday night 7:30 New Orleans Cafe was the venue ironic that the cafe named shared the topic of conversation and the prime agenda for the meeting. I will keep this post brief and go into more details in the coming weeks and months! But a descision was made on all of us putting in $95 each to organise our travel agent into motivating us enough to collaborate 5 guys’ ideas and make sure we are all at least are staying the the same state!
Our accommodation will also hopefully be in the Holiday Inn, French Quarter in New Orleans. That is our first preference and hopefully will be able to book it in tomorrow. Our fall back at this point is the International House in the American sector and is a little more pricey but we don;t want to be too far away as we have been made somewhat aware of the dangers that may present themselves to guys that can barely walk let alone navigate late at night after one too many drinks! Keep an eye out for team member introductions and a vague plan for our road trip and let us know what you think, oh and of course feel free to sponsor us in any way! A free high five to the first person who shouts us $5 *Only valid wherever I am unless flights and accommodation are looked after!
