Final Day - Lake Austin Spa Resort - Texas

This was a great trip.  The only thing that would have made it better is a longer stay.  I believe that next time I will try to find a deal for seven days.  The staff at the desk, dining room, and spa were all fantastic.  They took very good care of me.  And I met some wonderful people at the friendship table - I highly recommend sharing the table at dinner to meet others.

• 7:00  Breakfast:  my favorite blueberry and ricotta pancakes with a slice of ham
• 9:00  FUNctional circuit.  This was the heaviest workout of my stay.  There are 8 stations in the weight room:  1.  with a band under your feet walk sideways, 2. throw a ball up in the air and catch in a squat, 3.  woodcutter with the rope on cable, 4. bench step up (I had to modify to the treadmill because of knees), 5. bar pull ups and bar push ups, 6. assisted squats and shoulder press, 7. bird dog, 8. plank.  We did 2 sets of 35 seconds at each station and then repeated the whole thing.  Really kept the heart rate up!  And for a change I was able to do all of the exercises.
• 11:00 Lunch:  Salad bar; Barbecued chicken sandwich which had a large spread of guacamole, tomatoes, onions, lettuce and a finely grilled chicken breast; Orange burst sorbet for dessert.
• 12:00 Departure - Boo Hoo
