Day 27- Lazy

Today I woke up even sicker, an eye infection on top of all my other symptoms. I know its boring to hear about my sickness all of the time but its seriously putting a damper on the end of my fairytale trip. Well this was just the icing on top of the cake, my rally was officially over. I made the wise, boring decision to sit out of the wine tasting trip that Jill and I had planned for the day to try and let my body recover from all of the abuse I have put it through. Also, it would have been hard to taste all of the great different wines being so stuffed up and congested. Recovering isn’t anything exciting to blog about though. I set up a sick camp on the couch, watched TV shows that required absolutely no thought, and curled up in the pillows.

Initially Jill felt bad about going wine tasting with out me, but after firmly telling her I might definitely hurt her if she didn’t go, she changed her mind. They had a great time, and even got the tour for free! They brought me back a nice bottle of red wine to enjoy when I recovered. When they got back they joined me on my sick couch (on the other side of course) and we all watched a movie together. It was nice being able to watch movies with other people it made my sick day feel more like a date then a lazy day in.

After the movie we had a little dinner, and Jill and Megan had some wine while I enjoyed a nice hot cup of green tea (my life saver). Although the original plan was to hit the town hard for our last party night in Aix, hanging out with Megan and having quality time ended up being a much better decision, even though she lives very close to Jill and I back in the states, you never know how long it truly will be until you see a “long distance” friend again.
