     Getting to the home stretch of clinicals and we are all getting more comfortable and easing into their flow! I was in surgery today which apparently is the best on Mondays because it is the busiest! Because it is a learning hospital the rooms are full of people observing and the residents and nurses are really great explaining everything! 

    Later in the evening we went out with some of the residents and got drinks on the rooftop of the Admiral Hotel! We watched the sunset over the harbor and it was so beautiful! I sipped a spicy margarita that I am still thinking about because it was so good!! Its been great getting to know these residents over the past week and a half, its going to be hard to say bye :(.

Everyone has been welcoming (and we even got to see a surprising visitor in the patient rooms- a stray cat running around!).
