Today in Paradise

Good evening!
Today was amazing. When we landed on Hamilton Island we were greeted by a flurry of media! I liken it to a cameraman firing squad. There were cameras and reporters everywhere! Poor Mieko was absolutely attacked by the three Japanese TV stations that came out. I don't think the US realized how big this us-they didn't send anyone. Neither did Singapore :( BUT we'll be live to the world, superceeding all other current affairs! Hopefully your media supplier gets it's feeds from Roiters!

We had a swimming test today and we all passed. Then came a briefing of the entire schedule-WOW! This is going to be FULL-ON and tons of fun. Next came media interviews, followed by a tour of my new home :) the Blue Pearl. It is amazing and I'll get you some photos a soon as I can upload them! (I'm writing from my phone). We finished with a nice BBQ, mingling, and for Greggy, a little bit of dancing!

Tomorrow is full and it's getting late.
Buenos Nachos,
Greg
