Day 306: Long Beach Paradise

Positive update on health: back to full strength, no more headache, still have a sore throat but substantially less blood in the phlegm.

We execute our plan to kill the rest of the infection with UV rays and ocean water (don’t worry guys, we don’t believe this actually works). We start with some tea for breakfast and run to the beach to rent umbrellas and chairs for shade. We nabbed a perfect spot away from everyone and spent the day frolicking in the water, hiding in the shade, and re-applying sunscreen as often as possible. We also caught sand dollars.

The water is so clear and warm and the sand soft and white; the Caribbean has some competition. Visited an Italian pizzeria for lunch where a grand mother and her son moved to Cambodia from Italy and make authentic pizza. It was so weird and funny to us because here we are eating authentic Italian while staring at a perfect white sand beach and listening to jazz Christmas music. There are lots of little puppies, chickens, ducks, and kittens in this village to say hello to as well.

We continue to relax at our beach spot and run into the water once the sun starts setting so we could swim for 2+ hours without frying. Watching the sunset from the water was mesmerizing; it was a perfect little day after so much sickness and missing real arrives the last four days.
