First day of school

An early start this morning for our first day of school. We even took a little picture of ourselves but the camera didn't focus :(.  We'll try again another day.

We filled our Babson travel mugs with triple strength coffee and set off just before 7am.  Although we have been profiled as risk takers, we allowed an hour travel time for a 17 minute journey.  

Obviously time aware risk takers.

On arrival at College, I managed to lose my newly purchased 'cell phone' as soon as I walked through the door, so a big thanks to the reception staff who rescued my poor little lost phone and returned it safely to me.  

What a start to the course, we were dumped head first into a business simulation that had my head spinning.  Small teams, stunningly decorated corporate HQ offices for each team and a lovely lunch.  Although lunch couldn't be fully enjoyed (or photographed) as we were ploughing thru financials, setting production levels and determining manufacturing zones.  By 8pm we had eaten pizza and finally finished for the day.  

Not the healthiest dinner but there are veggies on it!
Back to it tomorrow, bright and breezy at 8am.  My first day driving in the US tomorrow - fingers crossed.
