views on our ride

I was the only one on the ride, had a couple of nice canters and lots of trotting.  Trotting on a paso fino is sooo comfortable.

Well worth it!

Pam in New York.  we had a 3  hour layover.  She also has a torn acl, and had a tibeal plateau fracture

We had a fabulous time in Puerto Rico!  Pam and I had a great flight from Burlington to Kennedy on Jet Blue, our connecting flight was boarding when we landed so there was no waiting.  It was about a 3  1/2 hour flight to San Juan.  We found our bags and then took a shuttle bus about 20 minutes to Fajardo where the resort is.  Gorgeous weather, Hot!  89-94, sunny and breezy.  We checked in and were escorted to our room (we had chosen upgrade to an ocean view if available for $20 more per day) and it was well worth it.  The conference was great, 500+ nurses from all over the world.  Great networking!
