What a gorges day but, why do these days happen when I have to work??? Couldn't resist snapping our cherry tree in full bloom and quite striking against the blue sky. Hope this weather lasts through Saturday so I can get out and enjoy it!
I made a commitment to my self...I made a commitment to myself at the beginning of the year that I would Learn more about photography and my camera and of course take more pictures. One of my favorite types of photography is macro photography. Here's something I took today as I was playing around with my camera. It's from our tree in the backyard, I'm not sure if you call it a blossom or I guess a catkin. Anyway I thought it was cool with the water drop run the tip of it.
Santiago – Atlanta – New York – Atlanta – PortlandOur trip home didn't go quite as planned. Our flight out was delayed so instead of a direct flight to JFK we stopped over in Atlanta causing us to miss our connection in New York. We were rebooked on a flight which took us back to Atlanta and then finally home the next day. The hotel Delta put us up in was very nice but all that for a 2.5 hour nap… All in all, it didn't dampen the wonderful experience I had this past week. I am so grateful I had the opportunity to be apart of the Portland team. I have made new friends and the memories will be bright in my mind for years to come. As many I interviewed on this trip, actually everyone, when asked if they get the opportunity to come back next year, would they? Without hesitation they definitely would, and I would too, without a doubt.
Checkout dayOnce again the lobby looked like the day we arrived with our luggage filling every corner. All was packed on the bus and we transported back to the Hospital. It was packing day and everyone pitched in. Soon the school bus was loaded with all the supplies and half our group. The rest of us followed in a second bus.
