The 6th day of March besides being a rainy day was also the date appointed to get a present to the Danish Embassies around the world. Here in Portugal we chose to get there around 1500 to gather in front of the embassy and deliver our gifts. I was running late due to traffic and disorientation… I got to the embassy around 1540 with a friend calling me saying she was leaving, I was wet and started to feel nervous. I got in and there were only two people standing, one of them was my friend and the other a journalist from Público (a top journal here in Portugal). I thought, ok this was not very successful in terms of people showing up…
Well, I was (gladly) wrong, people were showing up at different times to deliver their gifts. So we manage to prolong the initiative for a few hours with people coming and going for innumerous times, good MIND-BOMB. In the end we got around 20 people delivering goodies to the Danish Ambassador, quite positive.
I got in a letter to the Danish Ambassador, including the part written by John Frizell (distributed in the GP newsletter) and an extra paragraph taking the opportunity and ask Denmark to support Portugal’s candidature to host the IWC meeting in 2009.

Tomorrow there will be an article published in the newspaper referred about the action.
I thought it to be quite positive.
However there isn’t anything about the action (worldwide) in GP website so far…
