OK, the bad news. I have been caught by a cold. Why we say: I caught a cold is beyond me. I certainly wasn’t chasing a cold. If I knew one was after me I would have been running away from it.
But, after all those plane rides… why am I surprised? And, it just seems to be a garden variety cold. I have 2 entire days for it to get better – before I start out on another huge plane journey.
Unfortunately, I sent all my ibuprofen, sudafed, etc back to the asylum in the flat rate box yesterday. But none of those are going to hurry up the recovery. So, I’ll just rest. Which was my plan all along.
And, I can not be TOO sick – because – in honor of Carlton I just polished off dessert – cheese cake and coffee – before dinner. Being grateful that I stayed 100% well during the Australian Adventure Before Alzheimer’s.
Started on the image cataloging and culling process today. Doing Melbourne.
Took rather many pictures at the Zoo.
For no apparent reason, the Melbourne Zoo lets people wander around in the lemur cage with the lemurs. Indeed, Australian zoo’s allow lots more of that sort of activity than US zoos. I am not sure how the lemurs feel about having people walking around in their house – but – since I only took my cheap-ass plastic wide angle lens and the 35mm prime that I used all summer on the Last Great Photo Shoot – I was happy.
