Beach Time

So last week was kind of a haze. I was super sick for one of the first times in a long time. Total swiney flu if my remote doc, aka dr. mother-in-law, is right.

Sandwiched on either end of my flu were times sitting at the beach. The night before getting sick I sat on the beach and read and hung out for the whole later afternoon and evening. It was blissful. The sound of the ocean and an almost full Halloween moon, very delightful.

A week later when I was feeling better, I ended up back in the same spot, and wondered what just happened to the prior week. Incredible how much your health affects everything.

I am ever so grateful that my health is generally quite fabulous when I travel, and I don’t suffer from most of the Africa inspired illnesses that abound. I am thankful for this indeed.

Now I’m off to Zimbabwe in the morning, via Ethiopia of course, with an all too short of a stop (not getting off the flight) in Ghana. I will suffer for sure knowing that I am so close, and yet so far away. Will have to make sure I have time for a real stop over next time I’m in the neighborhood.

Cheers,

Miel
