Day 51: Brisbane, Australia

March 18, 2023 — After heading back from the library the previous day with chills, I climbed into bed, napped, and still slept the night through. I woke up this next morning and laid in bed all day, hoping to beat whatever bug I’d managed to catch since I had a tour booked for the next morning.

I took more Tylenol, finally found orange juice without pulp (and which tasted a lot like Tropicana, thank goodness!), made more noodles in an effort to mimic chicken soup for dinner, and spent the day watching Modern Family and movies. I took another hot shower and slept through the night.

Although spending so much time resting instead of experiencing defeats the purpose of travelling, this rest had a very important purpose and I was really glad that I spend the day pretty much comatose. It gave me a chance to really slow down, take care of myself, and work on feeling better so that I could get back to experiencing more.
