Just picked this post up after our 3 concert weekend where one of our big numbers was New York New York! Hope you are feeling better Trish Euan looked s lot more enthusiastic in the photo of the two of you! How’s the food?
Traveler Hi Gill, great to see this app is working! Yes indeed, the big apple. Last day today and we have seen lots. Great weather also helped. I have had bronchitis!! Would you believe it. I caught Euan’s cold which went a bit out of control. First time having to use health insurance! The clinic care was good. I was forced to get help when my wee sats machine’s alarm wouldn’t stop going off! Diagnosed quickly, and given the ABs and prednisone. It’s taken about four days to stop wheezing and choking! I seem to be better during the day when walking around, but I think it is def. On the mend. At night I am powered by prednisone so sleep is a fond memory🤣. We head to Lisbon this evening. Just sitting in Central Park after spending about 4 hours at the MET. Very good went to Karl Lagerfeld! David & Euan not too overwhelmed in exhibition!

Traveler Sorry to hear you've been a bit miserable Trish. Here's hoping the meds make all the difference super fast!! Take care, Sue xx
Traveler Hi Sue, thanks for that! I had my little o2 sats machine, so when the alarm kept going off I thought it was time to get assistance! I have lot my appetite for food, but had a much better night last night, although the room was swelteringly hot! Several sponge downs to fill in the wee x all hours. Revived enough for the Larchmont trip To David’s five years US home. It is a planet away from NYC, a very welcome day! My coughing has been greatly reduced! Did you have a nice time planning with Jenny?
Traveler Glad you had a better night tho interrupted with sponge downs doesn't make for a wonderful night. Would have been nice to get out of the city for a bit. Jenny and I did some rough planning of things we would like to see and do in some of the places. She went home on Wednesday morning. Lucy rang today so had a nice long chat to her. Dave gets home tonight. Hope each day is better than the one before as the antibiotics kick in xx

Traveler Good stories. Salted cod?? No thanks. How good I'd the weather? xx. Give my regards to Anton please x
Traveler Thanks Esmee, first night of sleep in a week, pills finished but I have been propelled by prednisone till now. Love to Aqua friends! There is a gym in the hotel, but the five flights of stairs are more than a challenge at the moment. Cheers! Trish
Traveler Lovely Lisbon photos! Nice photo of you all too xx Hi to Eke and Anton. Will be a relief to get to actual food! If Eke says breakfast is good, then it will be 😄 No breakfast in a paper bag! I'm still walking plenty. Yesterday went on the Gorge walk halfway and back. Supposed to be fine tomorrow so I may walk some or all the way to Linton. So good to hear that you slept the night! Take care, Sue xx
