Back home

Back at the hotel now. We’re all going to get together and eat dinner tonight at Jaleo which is a Spanish tappas restaurant. It’s supposed to be good. I’ll look at the reviews so I can figure out what to order.

I need to get some rest. Had three 20 oz Gatorades today. It’s hot and gaining and the room we were in smelled like sewage. The sewage started to backup in the system. It was a terrible working environment.

Time to eat

Having lunch at the establishment just at the top of the escalator. It’s raining again today so I don’t feel like going to far. This place us called the Lighter Coffee, Grill & Sushi. It’s run by Koreans so I’m getting a Bulgogi plate togo. It smells really good in here. I’m sure it’s what I ordered too!

Up and ready

Got up, showered, had a granola bar and drank some Gatorade.  This time I’m not going to take any of the motion sickness pills unless I know for sure if I’m going to be spending a lot of time on the trains.  We have to cleanup after the experments today so that means we’ll be staying out there until 5 or 6 PM tonight.  Considering that we start our day so early, it’s going to be a lot of work.  It’s supposed to be 79 F with some showers.  That means high humidity.  Heat and humidity have been the weather du jour since we’ve gotten out there.  I’m missing some heat in the Bay Area too but they don’t have the humidity.  Can’t wait to get back.
