Welp, today’s post will be a quick one. We were up at 1AM both writhing with stomach pain. Nick was worse off than me, but we both had it. He started vomiting and I had, let’s just say, other symptoms. Everything was so spicy once again. He kept saying “what have we done?!” We were up and sick most of the night. He developed a fever and had it throughout the first half of today, so I think we had something beyond just eating very spicy food. Either food poisoning or a bug.
We decided at 6am that we were in no position to get on a plane, and I turned off my alarm to let us rest.
I felt okay enough to take Millie to breakfast at 9, and we were able to extend the hotel room for one more day. We came back, read, drew, and watched two movies in a row. Nick was still feverish and I was exhausted from barely sleeping.
After a long nap I took her downstairs to the hotel pool. Once again they made us wear swim caps. They had a hot tub and cold plunge and we spent an hour hanging out in both. This was the highlight of the day, we had a great time just giggling together.


She was a trooper throughout the day and understood how rotten we were feeling. She kept checking in with us and saying “how are you feeling?” I don’t think she minded all the movies she got to watch.


We ordered room service, I think our first room service of the whole trip? Bland club sandwiches were just what the doctor ordered.
We started feeling better this evening and booked ourselves on the same flight for tomorrow morning. It was not cheap because tomorrow is a national holiday. I had to do some deep breaths about the fact that we are paying for double hotels tonight and had to buy a last minute flight, but we didn’t have any other choice. Back to the schedule tomorrow.
