Back in the USA

Hi from lovely (and non-snowy Colorado),

The rest of my time in London was very nice. Wednesday, we ventured out for oure last excursion to Topshop (a great store in London, similar to H&M) and then had a great experience at our first Indian restaurant. The food and service were great and I'll definitely make more trips to Indian restaurants as I stumble upon them. Jenna and I had a nice evening at our leaving drinks last Thursday, my review and final day on Friday went great, and Saturday morning came so quickly. The flight from London was alright. My first seat had the tv malfunction, so I moved onto the first row, middle section, which had no one else on the row. Unfortunately, the arm rests don't go up there, so I was still stuck sitting straight up, but nice to have no one next to me. The flight went rather quickly as I watched some movies, listened to music, etc. Once in Atlanta, I grabbed a quick bite to eat at Chili's (amazing since I had been away for so long) and got on the flight to Denver. The flight seemed to drag on as I was getting more tired as it rolled into "after midnight" London time. Once in Denver, Ms. Lise picked me up and I was practically a zombie on the way home. I stayed up until 8 and then crashed for the evening until 9:15 the next morning. Didn't feel so great b/c I was hungry, still tired, most likely dehydrated, etc. Sunday was very uneventful as I spent most of the time on the couch watching basketball. I went to bed early again last night and prepared for my first day of clinical.

My clinical is at an outpatient orthopedic facility here in Evergreen. My CI seems very nice, but very enthusiastic about Pilates and had me try a bunch of it today. I am obviously not in great shape b/c I'm pretty sore already. The hours will be long on some days, but it seems she will be a great teacher and I will learn a lot. Dad gets here tomorrow with my car, so it will be nice to see him and test out my driving skills, since I haven't driven since Christmas! Suprisingly there is no snow out here and has been a very dry winter so far in Colorado. That may predict a brutal spring, but we'll just have to keep our fingers crossed that things don't get too bad. My blogs may not be as frequent or eventful, but keep reading and I'll fill everyone in on life in Colorado!
