Almost back
Sorry, Anna. I haven't blogged for a few days, but I have a good excuse!
We had two very nice days away at Aldiana, the German resort south of Mbour. We did very little. That was heavenly. Naps in an air conditioned room. Sitting by the pool reading magazines. Lazing in the pool itself when the sun wasn't so hot. Eating large quantities of too rich food. We didn't even have to drive down. The school rented an air conditioned bus! What luxury.
But the last day, Jane wasn't well. And as we got back, I started feeling unwell, too. In the end, Jonathan and I crashed early and slept until 10 on Monday. Jane was better and headed to school. I half recovered and worked a bit that day. Tuesday, though, I never left bed. Yesterday I slogged my way through, working more rationally as the day went by. By the evening I even was able to cook supper and have a good conversation with Gretchen who came for the evening.
I'll try to post something with photos later today!
