Well it has not been a great start to my trip as I came down with a stinker of a cold on my last day in Morocco and it has settled in good and proper now. They took care of me on the BA flight with honey and lemon and luckily the flight was only about 30 mins late, landing at 3pm. Unfortunately there were delays in getting us to the terminal so I ended up right at the back of the queue at immigration. I had no problems getting through immigration and finally made it to the youth hostel at about 5.30.
After settling into my room (or should I say bed - bottom bunk in a 10 bed mixed dorm) I popped out to get some food to keep me going till morning. The place was buzzing with the election news and many people were lined up in the TV room watching all the action. I however was feeling pretty rough and after a sandwich, a few chapters of my book, a sprinking of olbas oil and a couple of tylanol I packed myself off to bed.
Today I'm still deeply wrapped in the arms of 'Mr Cold' so I am having a quiet day at the youth hostel catching up on my email. It is a real shame I wasn't up to doing anything last night because the talk at breakfast was about the partying that was going on until late on the streets of Washington last night.
I'm going to pop out shortly to stock up on provisions and right this day off. I'm really glad I'm in Washington for a while because it means I don't feel under pressure to get out and about until I'm feeling better.
Catch up again soon when I've actually done something!
