Fernet is great, no hangover! I can imagine it being very good for an upset stomach.
Thirding or fourthing the Azores, whatever we've gotten up to. Absolutely beautiful and lots of history.
Even though it's a well-traveled European country, I recommend Spain. Both large and small. Granada is a must see for the Alhambra, but then there's Ronda, which is a very small town, but has a Roman aqueduct and Roman baths to explore. If you go over Easter, there's Semana Santa in Sevilla, and then all the spring ferias in the smaller towns throughout Andalucia. Plus, the smaller running of the bulls in Arcos and Vejer. None of those whole herds of bulls, just one at a time. Also, there are Roman ruins outside of Sevilla. Okay, done pimping Spain, now! I lived there for three years and really hated to leave because there was so much I still hadn't seen.
If you go to Spain, I recommend saving at least a day for Barcelona. Two days, if you like Art Nouveau architecture.
I love the "Oh, The Places You'll Go" amyth edition!
All of these sound amazing, and many are places I wouldn't have thought of myself.
I'm wary of cruises, because I have chronic problems with motion sickness and vertigo. But I may come out of this with a huge prescription for Zofran and some Scopolamine patches, so who knows?
Someone from my book club just sent me Cloudbound!
I keep meaning to go to the Azores! Maybe this summer?
Amyth, there are SO MANY places I want to go! But one I think would be fun but chill would be this summer when I was in France, I was bummed to not be able to spend a few weeks just driving to tons of tiny French towns and wandering around. There so very much to see there, and even if a town only has one museum and a good bakery, that's enough for half a day! My friend and I spent almost a whole day just driving through the mountains and stopping when we wanted (at a monastery, a goat cheese maker, a town having a festival) when the GPS wanted us to take a toll road for 90 minutes instead. Would've loved to do that more! I was kinda meh on Paris—it's nice and I didn't see anywhere near everything I'd like to, but smaller towns are awesome. (And the train system is pretty sweet too if you don't want to drive, or want to break from driving)
Timelies all!
Alas, I have no advice to give on either methotrexate or places to travel to. Sorry.
I'm sorry Cindy, my nurse on methotrexate was out today, but I will try tomorrow. She actually pushed herself too hard and needs to rest.
Also, I think there are mice under my stove. Evidence: My cat brought me a mouse and my cat is staring at the stove. I bought some mouse traps, and a container for the cat foood. I had assumed she chewed the bag.
I think I might have to pull out my stove and look for holes. DO not like.
I am serial posting, but I just did a better job than the professionals of cleaning a stain off my kitchen floor, because I just scraped some stuff off with a razor blade. I think it might have been spaghetti sauce. But now the stain they couldn't get off is gone.
Oh! Remember the flood we had? It was a mouse that chewed through the hose! It's a weird miracle to me that my mother upstairs has mice but I don't.
Also, did I post here that I thought my neighbor was growing weird facial hair for Halloween? It was not! He still has it.
