Tourist fever

It had to happen. But being hit, full-swing, by a severe case of the gringo-illness wasnt fun. Two days of no talking due to an incapable throat(may have relieved some people, no food and basically no walking. Of course, this happened the same day as I was asked by another volunteer if I had fallen sick here, and semi-proudly answered that I hadn't. But, with a little determination-- and a lot of antibiotics-- I think I'm on the mend.
