Arrival and Day 1

Yesterday, we have arrived safely at the Jamboree site after a very long flight. We rode the bus from the Copenhagen Airport to the Jamboree with some scouts from France. We arrived at around 1645 local time. Luckily, our tents were already set up by Western Region, and all we had to do was move them. We also set up our stoves, and set up our dining fly as well.

Today, we set up our gateway, built out of pioneering poles. Our quartermaster, Cameron, did a wonderful job organizing everyone and getting the job done, even through the pouring rain. Our gateway has two towers, one with a flagpole for the California flag, and one for our banner. We have free time until 1800 today, then we mobilize for the opening ceremony at 2000. 

I will do my best to post every day to report on the day's events.
