Miami: July 13-14

After a long, hot drive and a less-than-invigorating encounter with Miami’s afternoon gridlock traffic, we arrived at the Airport Hilton. The beautiful view of the surrounding lake and the distant downtown skyline from our 17th floor window immediately refreshed us.

It was such a joy to share our story that evening with the attendees of the Advanced Bionics summer seminar. Back in our room, we critiqued our presentation and made many changes in the hopes of improving it for our next opportunity. I was too mentally stimulated to sleep soundly that night, which turned out to be a blessing as I was easily awakened by the glorious colors of the sunrise.
