Dundee

Suddenly I find myself in Dundee. That's the nature of my job. I'm not complaining, I neither particularly like to travel, or don't like to travel, its just what happens in my life. So here I am in
Dundee right in the docklands area. I'm staying at the APEX hotel. Turns out that its a spa hotel. David, my colleague who collected me from the airport was telling me that its been built to resemble an old dockside building, complete with weathered wooden siding -- looks just like home. Before last weekend I wouldn't have had a clue what to do with a hotel like this, but thanks to our Saturday at the Nordic, I had no hestitation in donning my bathing suit and submitting to an hour of steam, cold pool, sauna, cold pool, steam, cold pool -- just like an old pro.

It was a great way to unwind after a long weekend with family. Tomorrow I have to be sharp and ready to work with my UK buddies, but for now its another Sunday evening, far from home.
