(5/8/09) 1:07 am Palau | (5/7/09) 9:07 am LADay of flying home Getting into Palau was much easier than getting out. I only got 2 boarding passes so I'll have to see what happens when I get to Hawaii. Only 2 hours and change and I'll have been up for 24 hours. There's a $20 tax to leave Palau...I happily paid it as this place now has a special place in my heart. 2:51 am Yap | 9:51 am LA Very rough landing, even got some "ooooh's" from the passengers....

(5/7/08) 1:39 pm Palau | 9:39 pm LALast day in Palau I didn't go for a walk with the girls this morning - partly because I was still trying to get online to upload yesterday's journal and check my e-mail (never could get connected), plus I got a pretty good sized blister on one of my toes during yesterdays walk (so much for telling the truth on packaging - blisterfree socks my ass).

(5/5/09) 7:00 pm Palau | 3:00 am LADay 8 in Palau Tried to walk around the track today, but only managed to do 2 laps (.5 mile). Something has bitten the top of my foot over one of the bones; it's in the area where the foot creases as your walking. I tried to wear the sandals I've been walking everywhere in, but after 1.5 laps I felt the sandal digging into the skin under the ankle bone. By the time I made it to the bleachers, it was bleeding.

(05/04/09)12:45 pm Palau | 8:45 pm LADay 7 in Palau After checking my e-mail and uploading yesterdays journal, I went to Palau Community College with Shauna and Rachel. While they did they're workout, I walked around the track 6-8 times (I lost track as I was listening to my iPod while walking). Then the sun was burning me up on the track so I decided to do the stairs which are covered. Left hot and sweaty but feeling really good. Came home and had some coconut...
