DAY 17 Nyuh Kuning Bali

We all rested and I had a small fever and big headache.

 

A day of rest yes
Yesterdays expedition
Weaving water snorkle vomit

No quite haiku format.

 

I did nothing today except rest! I had a fever and a headache all through the night. /now we are on night number 2 and I do not see any signs of breaking the fever. A fever in a hot place should break faster. I took naps on and off through the day while Dwana rested in her woman’s shelter. It will be interesting how things go once we start travelling again on the road. I am glad my fever is happening now and not later. Sort of like the low grade fever I would get when we were in Brasil that would last 2-3 days and then I would be fine for 2-3 days. Heat exhaustion maybe. Dehydration maybe. I drank a whole liter of Sprite and that made me feel the best. I remember my mom giving me 7up when I was younger and did not feel good. That was the best. Amazing how that remedy carries on with me today. I did not really eat much today. After all the food yesterday, I do not need to eat. I did make one short trip to the market. The Balinese smile alot, but other than our neighbors not to many have taken an interest in us. Putuh and Kadek have not come over in a while. The ceremony season is over. On to the next ceremony. The temperature is so hot here at night. Where is the breeze? The fever has created some interesting dreams with characters of my youth. When will the fever break.
