Viena and I were working on some of her workbooks when she said she felt ill. Happened just like that. Children can also be sick in travel school. I do not know what to think. A 100F fever. Could be what Ezra had, but I hope not. We thought Ezra’s fever was because of his teeth or the ringworm. Viena’s could be riding in the back of a minivan that usually taxis around school children yesterday. Could be the heat index fever because we went out in the mid day sun and jumped in the ocean. Could be something from jumping in the ocean. Whatever the cause, I wish we were all back to being healthy again. We all jumped into the water of the South China Sea. All the swells have come and gone. the current was not even felt and the water has lost the characteristic brown color and looks clean. The waves were a great size for Viena and Ezra. The day was so hot we only stay out about 45 minutes before we had to take cover back to air conditioning. I made some arrangements in Sri Lanka and unfortunately some of the places do not have A/C. We will see. A/C has been nice. All eyes were on Viena as she slowly settled into her fevery sickness. We did not go to the market. Ezra and I went down to the beach and played soccer for sunset. I think this was the first time he realized how fun playing ball – kicking a ball in a semi-organized way. The low tide flat open beach is perfect for soccer. Ezra did not even try to kick the ball into the water. Lasted about 20 minutes and then he went on to digging a hole in the sand which is his more typical form of recreation. We will see. Glad he defeated the fever and I can not wait for Viena to do the same.
