Day on the boat

Rough night of running to the bathroom.  Ron had some medication (left over from when we went to Africa) and it seems to have taken care of the issue but I feel weak and sleep deprived.  Took a shower and am sitting on the deck outside my room while staff is cleaning it.  Interesting to watch the hustle of staff and workers from the shore adding water to the boat, hauling away garbage, etc.  


Interesting storie from folks last night, two different American couples at different times snapped photos of the American a Embassy and were quickly apprehended and made to delete them.  One photo was the American flag flying against the blue shy.  They were asked for identification and the guards pointed out a small sign that said no photos.  I think the four Americans were genuinely frightened by the experience.  One woman in particular was really put out and planning to speak to her Senator when she gets home.  Guess it's just one more security measure and reaction to the dangerous times that we find ourselves living in.  

I am back in my room sipping tea and Ron is off to a museum.

  1. So sorry to hear you have been sick! Margie and I were out to lunch and tried to send you a post, not sure it worked though, so I'm trying again. Hope you are feeling better, no fun being sick, especially on vaca. Looking forward to you guys coming home, seems like you have been gone forever! Scary bit with the photos.
