We made it alive!

Today I woke up at the crack of dawn to make the long drive from Connecticut to Logan Airport for my flight to California for the chance to learn more about Silicon Valley. We boarded at 8:22a and from there I spent seven long hours trying to get comfortable but failed miserably. I leaned on a class mate I leaned on the fold out table but nothing seamed to work. I got to the point of misery where I slumped down in my seat in hope to catch some rest and luckily I did. When I woke up I had found we were climbing over the Rocky Mountains and wow what a view.

The rest of the flight was quiet and surprisingly smooth accordingly to colleagues that have flown before. As much as a I do not like to fly I found today's adventure to be more manageable than the last time. Once we arrived in Palo Alto we were able to enjoy with our professors who were more fun than they perceived themselves to be at times. We laughed and joked as if it was a regular vacation. I feel this trip will be a lot more enjoyable now that we've all bonded over great food and libations.

Until next time,
