Sick Day

When I woke up today I felt sick. Same as Chie felt yesterday I guess. My stomach was upset. Still we went to the beach after breakfast. I stayed in the shadow for an hour or so before I had to go back for a bathroom. After that we stayed at the poolside for the rest of the day.

Felt a little bit better so we went out for dinner. On our way to dinner we stopped at a foot reflexology at the D’Mall first. Halfway through the reflexology I felt nauseas and asked for the bathroom. When I stood up I felt cold sweaty and my vision narrowed to a tunnel and my legs felt like jelly fish. Still I did my best to get to the bathroom. But I was too slow and fainted halfway.

Everyone seemed to stop what they were doing to help me. I guess I lost too much water due to my upset stomach. Anyway, after relaxing for a few minutes we payed and went by tricycle back to the hotel for dinner. I had difficulties eating and went early to bed.

Puka-Shell Beach

This morning after breakfast we got a ride by the hotel’s minivan to the Puka-Shell beach. It was a stretch of sand on the north side of the beach with almost no people and very clear water.

We lay down in the sand close to some coco nut palm trees to get some kind of shade. But only after about an hour there was no shade at all. Fortunately we could enjoy the clear water to cool off. In difference from White Sand beach (which had calm water) the Puka-shell beach had some small waves. Although not as big as in Hawaii it still made it more fun to be in the water.

Floating Chie with a Philipine beer

We spent the whole day here reading, swimming and relaxing. At around 3:30 pm we packed our things and walked to a small restaurant at the place where we entered the beach. Chie had a beer and I have a mango juice while we waited for the hotel’s minivan to pick us up and drive us back.

For dinner we went to Gasthof to have BBQ. It was quite tasty but Chie felt sick afterwards. Too oily maybe. So we went home and went to bed early.

Yet Another Day at the Beach

Another day at the White Sand beach. With sunshine, water, and a great atmosphere. In the evening we made a reservation for a trip to Puka-shell beach tomorrow.

We went to Sa’neh Thai restaurant in D’Mall for dinner. Quite good Thai food. After the dinner we had drinks at the Mango Ray, frozen Margarita and mango shake.
