Waiting to go in for the tour. They were being told to check and triple check their phones to make sure they were turned off before we went in to see the live broadcast!
The control room. This is where it is all monitored and this room keeps everything at the station up and running. Too much to keep track of at one time!
The newsroom. It's about 1 min 30 seconds before they go on the air. You can see Dion (one of the anchors) checking her makeup and hair before they go live.
We're live! So cool to watch. The girls were super quiet and amazed at all of it.
The newroom that is right behind the live news desk. This is where all the writers sit that update Twitter, the web and write for the TV broadcasts. They also keep up with breaking news and dispatch the TV trucks and cameras from this room.
The breakroom upstairs. They have an ice cream vending machine which the girls thought was super cool.

The girls loved standing in front of the green screen and then looking at these monitors to see the map and try to do the weather. Definitely takes some practice and coordination.
Dion Lim talking to the girls after the news show. She talked to them about inner beauty and self esteem and being whatever they wanted to be. It was great and the girls really enjoyed talking to her and asking her questions.
Behind the live news desk
Look closely. Very closely because I'm pretty sure this will be the only time you will see me in a helicopter. The reason I am in this one is because it's on the ground and NOT about to take off! :-)

Talking to the Meteorologist. She was very nice and gave the girls some great advice.
