Today we awoke to a beautiful sunny day. Unfortunately, I was still not feeling well, and Nadine even called in a doctor. Basically, just a lot of nausea and I really couldn’t eat or drink anything.
The doctor arrived (she doesn’t like coming here since it’s so difficult to get to) and checked me out. Standard tests checked out (blood pressure, temperature, etc), and in her opinion, it was just a severely upset stomach from the very bad ride getting here. Her fee was 30,000 MGA, which actually works out to about 18 dollars, not that I care since the health plan will pay for it. Wow, if that’s what a doctor makes, the wages here really are low!
Anyway, I’m not entirely convinced with the diagnosis. She said this kind of thing has happened before with people traveling to this resort? Still, I spend a lot of time on a boat, so I’ve been exposed to far worse conditions for seasickness, which she basically said is what I have. I’ve been seasick before, and it’s never lasted this long?
Well, we took it easy for the day. I wasn’t able to eat or drink anything for the day, but just rested. I did find some strength to walk a bit on the beautiful private beach and sleep in the shade on a lounge chair on the beach.

Below are some photos of our private beach. By private beach, I don’t me just for Nadine and I, but for the resort. However, it felt like it was just for the two of us, since I haven’t seen many people on it.

We basically just relaxed for the day.
