Last night I woke around 4 am with the WORST stomachache like I hadn't felt since living in Guatemala. Awesome. I proceeded to be sick for the next 2 hours (not fun when you're using a shared bathroom which is not attached to your room...) until I was finally able to keep down some medicine. I'm guessing I must have either eaten something bad or accidentally drank some water at some point. Either way, it was seriously the sickest I've been in YEARS and all I could think was "Fingers crossed it's not parasites!!!!!!!" After falling back asleep for a little bit, Jon and I woke up around 8. While I still wasn't feeling great, I did feel MUCH better than I had, so I'm hoping that the medicine keeps working and it's just something I ate/drank. Ugh.
At breakfast I was able to eat about half a piece of toast and some tea. Better than nothing.
We spent the day today doing much of the same as yesterday - relaxing, reading, listening to music, swimming, and sleeping, only without the incredible weather from yesterday. But we were QUITE ok with the overcast day with sporadic showers since before coming to the island the forecast had said 80% chance of rain every day all day. A few sprinkles and no sun? I'LL TAKE IT. We were just grateful to be able to actually spend the whole day outside since we had been expecting to be cooped up all day with the rain!
We were also able to go snorkeling again which was nice, except with the change in weather and stronger winds the current was MUCH stronger, so much so that it made me feel a little queasy and I didn't last too long in the open water!
We enjoyed the day, made more friends at lunch and dinner (which, thankfully, I was able to eat without issues) and headed back for another early night. (I know, we're old.)
Crossing our fingers that the weather holds out again tomorrow!!!
Jess' highlight of the day: feeling better
Jon's highlight of the day: chilling by the pool and snorkeling
