There were two buses: one Orange and one Blue. The Orange one was maneuvered by Microsoft and a great team from MSL. The Blue bus was maneuvered by MCT Sweden and the community. Team Orange had links to the internet, blogged away and was tracked on the net - the world watching! So what ever happened to the Blue team? Well we had a bus, but we forgot one thing - to blog and to take pictures. Tjeerd has been nagging us a bit about our lack of blogging and we deserve to hear that. =) So here is our the first of the tales from the Blue bus. The Get On the Bus - MCT Edition.
We started out at Informator Utbildning in Stockholm, and we had some 50 attendees visiting our five sessions. This was the first of our stops, but it really wasn t a stop - the bus was to be picked up the following morning. The bus which during the project had shrunk a bit was in reallity a mini-bus by now. The sponsor-climate wasn t that allowing - but still we got some nice support from the sponsors we were able to get onboard.
Our biggest fear was losing another sponsor and actually having to ride public transport. But determination was top on the list and we were going through with it!There were four brave souls board at this stage. We handed out T-shirts to everyone and we got some good feeback about the event. A couple of our visitors thought that the tour was only for MCTs (probably due to the MCT-Edition name). This night everyone slept in their own beds and prepared for the "Get-On-The-Bus-Land-Speed-Record", the long nights and falling asleep behind the wheel adventures.. but more on those later..
