Tricia, your story does not make me feel any better. However, I do feel better. Yay for Cipro!

But if it makes you feel any better, I barfed in all the nine European countries I visited while having morning sickness (not confined to just mornings). I left my mark in Europe.

Gail, thanks for taking the time to comment. It was fun seeing you and reading your work too. Hope you are writing away…

Terresa, you noticed what was so wrong with this story: “…in Italy of all places.” : )

Claire, at least Nam will never forget you! The week was worth it. Hope you are all better now. So nice to meet you.

Teresa, I was sorry to hear Claire was sick too. I do think there was something going around. I’m still not to the point of not wishing to be on the airplane but I sure was happy to get home, get out of those clothes and into the shower!

Sorry to hear you and your family also had travel difficulties. Wow. Hope you are all back safe and sound by now.

Aaryn, the night I was stuck in Rome, I wanted to post something (because I had been so absent and now had the time), and I thought you cannot complain about having to spend a night in Rome. I also thought you cannot write about throwing up. So I went with mostly photos and a few words. By the time I finally made it home, I was thinking you are such a Pollyanna about traveling you have to come clean. Ha!

Thanks, Karyn!

Nice to have met you and Steve, Renee. Hope you had no issues on your return.
