March 28, 2008....More freebies

Just received a box in the mail...inside was 2 Great Escape 2008 t-shirts, 2 hats, 2 travel journals, and personalized luggage tags. Not as exciting as our free luggage, but you can't hit a home run every time.

Now it's time to get things ready around the house before we leave. From gardening and pruning to organizing and cleaning, there's still a lot of things to do. Lexi will be home to take care of Penny and keep everything else up to snuff while we're away.

With just 2 weeks to go before we "leave caution to the wind" and start our adventure, we'd like you to be able to follow in our footsteps by logging on to this site at http://www.vandiermen.blogspot.com/, and also the official Great Escape 2008 website. Their site is http://www.globalscavengerhunt.com/ where they will be adding additional info as we explore the world.


p.s. They're accepting applications for 2009! Any challengers?


Also, they're hoping to raise funds for several well-known charities such as Habitat for Humanity, Doctors without Borders, and Unicef. If you're interested in supporting the Great Escape Charitable Foundation, please have a look at the Global Scavenger Hunt web site for more information.

Please note all charitable funds go directly to the charities involved, everything else is paid personally by the participants on this adventure.
