I am on holiday, Day 8

A dark day yesterday. The Waterpoos began in the night; a day out of joy for my future sister-in-law was cut short by the sweats and an inability to eat a delicious breakfast, and finished in a bed wrapped in jerseys and blankets, despite it being 98 degrees outside.   The evening was spent with a club sandwich and sorbets of various fruits and the first two episodes of the BBC's Sherlock Holmes.

I am recovered now, thanks to sleep and the ministrations of the two Doctors (one my husband, a pathologist, and the other the sister of my sister-in-law and now sister of mine, a person doctor).

The club sandwich was breakfast; here it is:






































The pre-sweat attempt at breakfast at the Jardin Majorelle offered many delights, including:
















We were not sure what would happen if you cupped the pistachios near the banana slit, but we thought it best not to think about it too much.

Later, to the Medina on a bus. There will be photographs. You mark my words.

Pip Parp Pip!

The next time I'm travelling in a country where I could be prone to an upset stomach I won't be so prim and say 'I have an upset stomach' I shall say 'I have Water Poo'.

Love it.
