My clinical is going well, I've now been in the hospital 7 days.  I've treated a few patients, mainly getting them up out of bed and walking up and down the hallways.  It's been a great learning experience to see how one PT (my clinical instructor) does things in a setting I had never before experienced.

I've been getting off between 3:00 and 3:30 most afternoons, which leaves plenty of time to explore.  I've joined Michelle running from Forsyth Park along Bull Street to River Street.  We like to run to River Street Sweets, a big candy store that's known for fresh pecan pralines, among other goodies.

We took a drive to Tybee Island one afternoon and checked out the beach there.  Unfortunately it was mostly overcast, but it was still pretty.

Friday we ran along River Street, avoiding the crowds at Forsyth Park since there was a free concert there.  It was a bit difficult with the cobblestones, but still a fun sight-seeing run.

On the weekend, we drove out to Hilton Head Island, SC - we stayed with Aylin's parents.
