This is Vick’s first work trip abroad with Risktec. She’s on her way to spend a week with her colleagues based in Houston. This is a follow-on story from our Holiday to Las Vegas in Dec 2013.

Slept til 7:30am (which is good for me)! Went to breakfast on the top floor with good views of Seattle. 20% chance of rain today (remember that).Â

In some ways we are looking forward to getting back into a normal climate. We have started to get used to the heat in Las Vegas over the past few days so we will have a bit of a shock when we get off the flight at 6:30pm tonight.

Didn’t wake until 7:30am so a good night’s sleep was had by all! Started off with a swim in a nicely empty beach, and then we bagged two sun chairs for the following 6 hours until we returned.

Up at a reasonable hour and hit breakfast. We like breakfast at HGI and today’s was no exception. I tried the pancakes today and they were really thick, so I didn’t make that much progress into the three that were served up.
