Friday/Saturday/Sunday, August 26/27/28
Routine transit from home except rather than getting to SFO at 4am to catch a 6am flight, we arrive at 9pm to catch a midnight/red-eye to Miami. Nice to finish last-minute chores at home and clean the house after two weeks of grandkids. (Plus no commuter traffic to San Francisco). Routine 6 hours to Miami, arriving at 8am, breakfast, and a 3-hour flight to Grenada. Saturday night was an orientation to Grenada and 1000 Smiles.
Today was the 2-hour clinical orientation with the whole group. No set-up of the clinic since this is the 3rd week. We are told it is at the 10,000-seat National Cricket Stadium! Kinda underneath, so perhaps cooler than otherwise. Speaking of weather, mostly sunny with mid '80s during the day, mid '70's at night, high humidity and daily intermittent showers.

After clinic orientation the afternoon was free so Gloria and I took a SCUBA refresher course. It has been 3 years since our last dive so we thought it was in order. It was in a pool so very routine, all went well. Along with us was a couple who lives on a 45 foot catamaran! They are wintering in Grenada. They took three days from the boat to celebrate a birthday and do some diving. They are seeing the world. Nice people.
Tomorrow, we eat breakfast at 7 then head to the cricket stadium to be begin work.
