The University of Minnesota Dance Team was selected to represent the United States in China March 5th 10th.  Ten Members along with Coach Amber Struzyk made the long journey to a foreign land to appear on a television show in Changsha.   It was an amazing trip that created long lasting memories.  From lost luggage to celebrity status, language barriers to intriguing delicatessen, the trip was action packed.   It was a tremendous culture shock to be in a country where the words on buildings looked like art;  however, it was the people of Changsha and the International Cheer Union that made it a once in a lifetime experience.   Three of the team members documented their journey to share with Gopher Fans! Thank you to Emily Dahley, Stacey Weyandt and Janna Thomas for sharing!   DAY 1:  Embarking on a New Adventure DAY 2:  A Day in the Life of a Celebrity DAY 3:  Sightseeing and Arriving at Changsha Middle School DAY 4:  Shopping and Returning to the United States of America
