This last weekend I went to Carmel, CA to present a powerpoint presentation on my shoe project in Uganda. As you can tell from the pictures below, I endured terrible agony down there. (Did I mention that it snowed briefly the day before I left Seattle)?
This is the view from the hotel we stayed in. It was 65 degrees and sunny most days. UW paid for all of the student's airfare and hotel stays to encourage us to present our abstracts.

Saturday, after I presented I went for a 20 mile bike ride with some of my classmates down "17 mile road" and back. We were riding along the beach almost the whole time and it was really beautiful.
UW also put on a welcome dinner for us at Mission Ranch (Clint Eastwood's restaurant in Carmel). As you can tell from the picture, the food was pretty as well as delicious).
This was our program for the conference. OK, so I know this is a lame picture.
I also got to see my older brother and my grandparents while I was down in California. Here is a nice picture of Granny and Spiro.
Granny and me. We had fun walking outside even though granny had knee surgery recently.
sSpiro and me. I really enjoyed talking with Spiro again and hearing some more of his stories from the Great Depression. It is crazy how much our grandparents have been through/seen!
