I've been very busy...things are progressing beautifully on that front. <br /><br />The march will kick off in London on October 24th - a global day of action on climate change. (See 350.org) We will arrive in Copenhagen on December 5th. All of Roz's Rozlings are more than welcome to join us along the way! Truly, the more - the merrier.<br /><br />More details to come...Stay tuned! <br /><br />NicoleNicole Bilodeau, Program Director for Roz Savagehttp://www.rozsavage.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28434997.post-56049423522070618392009-07-22T02:25:23.846+00:002009-07-22T02:25:23.846+00:00Nicole, do you have approximate ETAs for Bonn and ...Nicole, do you have approximate ETAs for Bonn and Copenhagen yet? Does Roz have an accredited NGO group to participate with, or an unofficial agenda to help us Rozlings plan?<br /><br />Glad you invited Mr. Coelho to the blog ... he should become our <i>Rozling Emeritus</i> -- inspiration to Roz and all Rozlings.

It won't pull up using IE, tried it just now. <br />Roz is a legend. I foresee more people will hear about her, hopefully not much later after she's written her book.

I haven't been able to get into www.rozsavage.com at all for the last week, and it all seems to go back to an IE upgrade at that same time. Glad I can still follow you on Blogger. And thanks for the recommendation of The Alchemist which I just ordered from Amazon. I can't believe I'm getting reading recommendations from the middle of the Pacific, but you're the proof that the book strikes a chord with people.

I see from your post you are probably just now settling in for the night. Sleep tight!<br /><br />Reading the breadcrumbs, looks like you only lost about 0.4 mile during the past two hours as you wrote this post. Hopefully that will be the pattern while you rest. I have a feeling today's rowing will be a good one for you and you may well cross 4N by sunset. Finger's crossed ;-D<br /><br />And, on your recommendation, I will read (or, maybe I'd enjoy listening to Jeremy Irons) <i>The Alchemist</i> soon. <b><i>It's about time.</i></b><br /><br />BTW, I ordered <b><i>Rowing the Atlantic: Lessons Learned on the Open Ocean</i></b> June 4th -- expected delivery October 13th.
