Today we registered in the UN to get our grounds passes, feeling very privileged as a returning delegate my pass was pre-printed awaiting my collection! Then it was time for the hard work to begin - a full day of training at the Girl Scouts of the USA Headquarters on 5th Avenue.
It was great to see some of the other delegates starting to come out of their shells (I remember just how I felt this time last year) and their presentations about the progress on MDG 3 in their home countries was really interesting.
Tomorrow we'll be attending the girls orientation day to help in the facilitation of some of the workshops - I'm particularly looking forward to hearing Michele Bachelet speak and hoping to, once again, get a chance to speak to Leymah Gbowee!
But now it is time for some well earned rest - goodnight from the city that never sleeps!
