So....we spent a couple of days in the cabin. Not the most fun that's for sure.
Sherrie came back from Messina a lot in pain and sporting a helluva cold all of a sudden. Her head was stuffed and full of sinus pressure. All I could think was "Crap, now I'm gonna get sick too."
And sure enough, Thursday morning I woke with a sore throat. I could have suffered through Pompeii if Sherrie wanted to go. She was having none of it. By the time she woke up on Thursday it was full on sinus pressure. She was one unhappy cruiser.
Our port today was Salerno. Our plan was to go to Pompeii. It was one of the stops Sherrie was really looking forward to. She's not seen Pompeii and really wanted to. I choose to not go alone. I've seen Pompeii and I knew I was getting the cold Sherrie brought home from Messina.
We sat in the room most the day. Leaving only to get dinner or, in my case, Starbucks.
The next day we were scheduled to go to Florence. I had already cancelled my excursion because they added a 45 minute walk back to the bus at the end of the day and I knew I wouldn't be able to do that after a 10 hour excursion. Sherrie decided on Thursday that there was no way she'd make it easy. We went to the excursion desk and, thankfully, we were able to get her money back for it. Cuz it was an expensive one.
Friday we did much of the same we did on Thursday. We sat in the room, stuffy and coughy. We watched some movies. We left only for food and spent a good part of the day sleeping.
Those two days were both boring as hell and a complete blur. I remember sitting in the room thinking I was going to die of boredom, but the next thing I know it's time to pack our bags and put them out for us to disembark on Saturday.
This should be a fun trip home. Nothing like traveling when you feel like crap.
