I’m writing this from our neato rental apartment (complete with free WLAN) in Vienna while Po and Susie and Sarah are out exploring the Schönbrunn Palace and museum complex. I tried to go with them, but the sad fact of the matter is that I have been nearly incapacitated since the night of our arrival in Salzburg three nights ago. I don’t know what I picked up or where, but this has been nasty. I’ll spare you the details; they’re pretty disgusting (even for me). There have been a couple factors at work here: our itinerary, weekend Apotheke hours, and my own stubborn belief that I’m slowly getting better (and I really am, but you’d need the details to be sure).
So, on the one hand, I’m disappointed that I am missing out on some of the stuff that I said I’d do next time (like Schönbrunn) but on the other hand I guess I’m glad I’m not missing out on a completely new city if I’m stuck here in the apartment being sick. If I had a third hand, I’d be glad on it that none of the rest of our party appears to have contracted whatever I did.
Rats! I was convinced being sick while loads of fun was going all around only happened when we were kids. But I see the fun ‘spoiling’ bug still strikes at any young age.
I do hope you’re getting better ..even without knowing the details.
Bummer! Hope you at least feel better for the flight home – if not, I hope you get the pleasure of infecting the rest of the plane.
Oh, too bad! I hope you keep your illness to yourself for the sake of your in-laws! The pictures are beautiful. Let us know how you’re doing and go to the apotheke as soon as you can.
Love,
Mom
