Laughing

Sometimes you just have to laugh for no reason until you start to cry and fall on the floor. Sometimes that is the result of a TV show on ice cream while your family looks at you like you've lost it. Good times.

Utah

I just got home from a wonderful few days in Utah. I spent most of my time in Salt Lake City for my interview, but also explored a bit. My flight in was a little crazy, with lots of turbulence and a diversion to Provo to re-fuel since we were unable to land on multiple attempts due to shifting winds. We sat on the plane while they got more fuel and filled out all the paperwork and then made the quick hop up to Salt Lake City. I was a little late to my dinner because of that, but only really missed the drinks and mingling portion, so it wasn't a problem at all! The next day was my interview, which was great. The hospital seems like a great place to work and the program seems to prepare residents well.

After the interview stuff was all over I explored downtown SLC a bit, mostly by walking around the mall and the Temple Square area. I had dinner at a place called Blue Lemon, which I found extremely appropriate! The temple was quite pretty with the whole area decked out in Christmas lights. I enjoyed walking around!

This morning I got up and rented a care for the day. I went to the Olympic Oval for a trapeze class, and then drove into Park City to check out some of the ski resorts. I had lunch at Deer Valley, which was quite nice! I then went back into SLC to drive around the hospital area one more time, since I had been shuttled there and back yesterday, and then checked out the local Whole Foods of course :)


Overall a really nice trip!
