First Impressions are not Always the greatest!

The spectacular view of Lake Superior from our balcony; is breathtaking. The resort is beyond a stay I would have ever had. What you see on the outside is not exactly what goes on the inside. That is where the first impression went out the window!

Forget the beauty of the scenery as you are hiking as you just put one foot in front of the other. What is on the inside of this resort has my body wanting to just sleep right now; actually my body was ready to sleep at noon today. That wasn't happening. As I want to go to bed right now at 6:00 p.m., I am reminded by my wonderful roommates that I HAVE to eat my snack around 7:45.  I don't even want to eat anything else.

We have already had one person sidelined due to an injury and another who is on her way to the emergency room. I am thankful that only my knee is in pain and of course my foot is in excruciating pain. I will keep going.  Ice, ice baby....that is my motto. I made it through the official day 1. The worst is now behind me. Although O'Neal, from the Biggest Loser, has reminded us all that we will hit that mental and physical wall; I have to believe that I will get over that wall, even if I have to dig a tunnel to go underneath.

I am going to leave you with the fact that I am ok and am still alive! I love my husband, Krzysztof and my two awesome children, Elzbieta and Jacek with all my heart. Because of you guys I am here!

Until tomorrow, depending on my physical and mental state:

Peace Out!
