About this trip is that it hasn't been much of a trip at all. To this day, I am still congested and ill. It has been over a week since I've stepped outside this apartment, and today is the first day that I have felt well enough to even consider going out for a meal this weekend.During the downtime, I've discovered my new favorite television show. It's The Lion Man. Think of him as Steve Irwin of lions. He hand raises lion cubs and trains them personally. His theme song is so cheesy, but catchy (It's apparently won a BAFTA!). If you want to catch a preview, see this youTube video.
On Boxing Day we did have a full house for a day of eating and opeing presents. I wasn't much help in the kitchen, but it looked like D and his brother M didn't really need any help from me anyway. Their menu included roasted chicken, roasted lamb shoulder, "veg", potatoes, yorkshire pudding, and stuffing. For dessert, we had an abundance of chocolate cake, black forrest gateau (sponge cake), mince pies, and lots of chocolate boxes. We still have lots of leftovers in the fridge.
I might partake in some gateau for breakfast this morning...if I can only stop coughing
