Frickin' Sickin'
Entry 2 of 4 | show all | print this entry |
So our journey has taken a sicky turn, ie some food poisoning of the highest order, which caused Hats to miss out on dumplings and seeing dogs being killed at a local market. Meaty.
Lils nursed her as best she could, which was not very well. Sadly Hats missed out on the Yangshuo Cooking School which Lils attended on her own, despite feeling the beginnings of a nauseous turn..But she stood next the chef and he said to her "Have you never cooked before?" and she replied "No" (which I think we can all agree is true) and he exclaimed "Really!?" in disbelief. So she made some porky egg dumplings, some chicky steamed in a rustic woven basket, some gross pork and some nice veggies in a lot of oil. Then she ate it with the others. But then she threw it up.
So today we lounged like sicky ladies of leisure in the dampest rooms on earth. Lils did venture out into the town to partake in some "Hot Cupping" (not of the breast kind) with Emma and Jen. This involved a chinese lady called "Dr Lily" (cool!)heating up some bamboo cups with a flaming ball on a stick and then shoving them willy nilly upon her bare back. Jen had literally 2 lines of burning cups on her, but Lils had at least 6 lines. The woman said "Oh! You're so white! You will bruise for much longer!". So now Lils has thousands of bright purple raised bruises on her back. Sexy. It's like a hickey festival on her back. Supposedly I have now removed the "damp" from my body and the purple shows how much poison has been released from my body. Sadly, I seem to have poison in every part of my body - stomach, liver, kidneys and lungs. I don't even smoke.
