Looking at my blog one might think this CSC stuff is pretty easy. It really is not. We've been on the move since we've been here. There's really not very much time to rest (even our weekend trip was fast paced action). There Is an overwhelming amount of information to consume. There's the pressure of great expectations in 4 weeks from a team of people that barely know each other and are working on something totally new for them. Last but not least there's the cultural/language barriers - not just with the local people, but within the team.
Today I felt like the legendary welterweight boxer Roberto Durán in his November 25, 1980 match against Sugar Ray Leonard. After 8 rounds of grueling boxing Durán walked back to his corner supposedly saying, "no más." Shortly after noon today I walked back to my corner saying "no más." I needed to get away and clear my head. I went back to the hotel room, took a short siesta instead of eating lunch and then worked in the quiet comfort of my hotel room the rest of the day - well it was quiet until the maid came into run the vacuum.
Prior to my 8th round, we attended an Aquaculture Committee meeting at Canales where we had the opportunity to ask the attendees a few questions. In actuality I had decided that I was going back to my hotel room to work before we even got into the office, so the Aquaculture Committee meeting had nothing to do with my decision :).
