    Hello from San Javier, Spain.  Michael Wellington and I have just completed our two practice rounds around El Valle Golf Club in the far southeast portion of this country and are excited about getting after it the next four days.  The course itself has a complete desert golf feel to it that you would compare to the golf found in Arizona.  I feel great about the state of my game, so all I can do from here on out is go out there and let my talent shine forth.  It is my goal from the moment I wake up tomorrow to the moment I hole out on the last hole four rounds from now to have the best attitude of any golfer in the field.  Michael and I have been talking about just being loose, walking with confident strides, having great body language, and talking positively at all times.  Any adversity we will just shrug off and keep steamrolling forward. 
    We made it to Spain Tuesday morning after close to 24 straight hours of travel.  We took a 2 hour flight to New York, then a 7 hour flight to Barcelona, followed by an hour flight from Barcelona to Alicante.  We then rented a car and drove 1 hour and 30 minutes to the resort we are staying at.  The course is in a very rural part of the country so it was difficult to find, but luckily we have GPS that pinpointed exactly where we  needed to go.  The food over here actually is very good.  There is a grocery store some 300 yards from our hotel which has been very convenient.  Peanut Butter and Jelly sandwiches are definitely going to be a staple this week.  I hope all is well back home and I look forward to reporting back with some quality news as the week progresses.  Thanks for reading!
