    I have a nephew! Oh and food poisoning

    May 30, 2017 in Thailand ⋅ ⛅ 23 °C

    Last night was horrendous. I fell asleep with pains in my stomach and woke up in the early hours of the morning and was unfortunately sick. It was the start of a spout of food poisoning from the street food we ate last night that went on all through the morning. From 1 until 6.30 when Nick woke up I'd had about an hours sleep. It was unbearable and today has been just as bad. I've spent the whole day in bed and we've watched Britain's got Talent to pass the time. While I've been napping Nick has been amazing and planned most of our Kuala Lumpur part of Malaysia as well as gone out and brought me back some snacks in the evening when I was feeling like attempting food. We did have a little hiccup this morning as we'd planned to go on a trip today. Nick headed out half an hour before we were arranged to be picked up to inform the woman that we couldn't go and can we rearrange for tomorrow. 20 minutes after he left I get a phone call and the woman in reception is saying our pick up is downstairs. I tried to explain but she wasn't understanding. As Nick was out getting breakfast I had to get dressed and climb down the 4 flights of stairs to reception with awful stomach pains where I tell her Nick is sorting it but she insists I have to speak to the driver and ushers me outside. I meet the driver and check his sheet and he's collecting one person not two and with a completely different room number to ours. He wasn't even for us, so that was rather frustrating. On a massive plus side though my beautiful nephew has entered the world and our family this morning at 3:45am UK time. Being ill meant I was able to be on constant wifi to see all the amazing photos and updates from back home. Today has been a trying day and of course I had nothing to photograph but our room and tablet so have included some great pictures of baby Zephyr sent from my sister. I'm so in love and craving to be home more than anything. It's going to be very hard the next few weeks!Read more
