On Monday & Tuesday, I was extremely ill with a severe case of traveler’s stomach. Jon & Barry managed to climb on Monday, but by Monday night they too were ill.
The hotel staff recognized we were ill when we missed meals.
A member of the hotel staff came to my room with tea & hareira. I could not keep down the soup, so I requested rice. They were extremely kind in caring for me, and arrived a few times to check on me. One of the young fellows suggested that I should “forget about it” and I would “get better in health”. I could not forget about it when I was spending most of the day either hugging porcelain or sitting on it. What misery!
