Preparing for New Zealand

Well, the tickets are bought and hotel reservations are made. The old ladies really are going to New Zealand to represent the United States Curling Association. They leave for New Zealand on April 14th, but the competition does not start until April 26th. They will have plenty of time to get acclimated to the time difference and do some travelling/sight seeing before the Curling will begin. They will be keeping to the Southern Island in New Zealand, if you have been there and have any ideas on sights they need to see please send your suggestions to them. They can be emailed at seniorladiesrock@gmail.com or you can leave comments here on the blog.

The old bats will not be updating the blog for us, but they have agreed to let some of the whippersnappers help out and keep the rest of us informed and current on their travels, plans, and games. Nicole Way and Emily Good will be doing the updating to the blog and getting photos from the trip to share with those of us that are not able to travel with them to New Zealand. Emily Good is lucky enough to travel with the team and give us insider information and updates from the ground in New Zealand. Nicole Way will be left behind (bitter at the blatant age discrimination!) and will update the blog with the tidbits that they decide to share with the rest of us. Join us as we live vicariously through the Senior Ladies as they Rock their way to the World Championships!
