I'm still nursing the torn biceps tendon in the shoulder (SLAP Lesion - Superior Labrum from Anterior to Posterior) so I decided to head to Paris. Why feel sorry for myself at home when I can do it with baguettes and cheese over here? I return to the U.S. and to the orthopaedist shortly and will report back in detail on shoulder injuries in swimmers-namely my own. My physical therapist thinks the only way to repair this is with surgery. Even my acupuncturist agrees. The acupuncture has helped with the inflammation, but it can't regenerate a torn tendon. We'll see what the doc says next week.

In the meantime, I'd love to share a few snaps of my trip...
