This is going to be my last post about the domestic plant trek. Sorry about the lack of photos, but the last half of plant trek was a bit of a blur! Below is a summary of our whirlwind of visits the second week of plant trek.
Monday: After the Amazon distribution center visit, we all rode on a bus to Raytheon in Tucson, AZ. We were on the bus for approximately 7 hours and arrived near midnight in AZ.
Tuesday: Visited Raytheon in Tucson. International students were not allowed on this site visit because the products that they manufactured were for defense applications. After the visit to Raytheon we flew to Austin, TX to visit Dell. Most of us went into Austin for dinner. A few of us went to Stubbs and enjoyed some famous TX BBQ!

Wednesday: Dell executives all the way from Michael Dell (whoa!), Jeff Clarke, and others spoke to us at Dell. This was by the far the most top heavy of LGO visits. Dell seems to have some great plans in place for revitalizing their company post-privatization.
Thursday: Travel day to San Juan, Puerto Rico. In the evening Amgen hosted us for an appetizer reception.
Friday: Visit Amgen's manufacturing facilities in San Juan! The plant where they bottled, labeled, and shipped off their biologics was very impressive.
