Slow pickup

Gili Meno, West Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia
John still not so good today tummy very light, still spiking temps.
He made the effort to come to breaky with me, but energy ran low quickly so drugged him up .
He made a good recovery enough for us to go for a walk to the turtles area to look for a geocache that wasn't too be found.....
A rest John slept for ages he's still not 100% yet. I had a bit of a kip. Then had some left overs I had taken back to the room for lunch. Then after John revived a bit he had finally finished his book, so we headed out to get one from the little book stall we found the other day..... only thing is we seemed to miss it. Instead we ended up at a beach side bar having drink to keep us going. I had a cocktail John had just juice as his tummy still unwell..... what was supposed to be a quick walk to get the book turned out to be 2 hrs later with John totally stuffed. So another rest before heading to dinner.... this turned out to be a movie night open air.
We settled in for a comfortable evening of a light dinner and popcorn, only for the heavens to open slowly at first..... we thought we could cope with this but in the end we had to give in and head for cover... sadly the timing also coincided with a blackout. These are a nightly occurrence just some nights more than others.....
tonight however it put a total holt to the movie just when we were at the best part of Pete's Dragon.....
So we sat back had our drinks watched the people come and go finishing with a dessert that was part of the deal...
A shame they didn't continue with the movie but the night was ok anyway!
John starting to recover....
Another day down our last full one here.
