update
esther left this morning, after a week of taking care of me. it was so great to have someone who knew the city so well and can speak vietnamese! i feel a bit like a dog who's lost his owner.
i got really ill yesterday (still recovering). thought i could hit up the ethnic museum in the morning, but spent the entire time curled up in a fetal position in the lobby while esther and trang looked around. came back and didn't move from my hotel room bed until this morning. quite feverish - maybe a flu or stomach bug or something. feel much better today thankfully - as esther is now gone.
the weather is 40 degrees and not relenting. i might just take it easy today and not try to squeeze too much in. still feel a bit queezy...

Poor Justine! I'm glad you're better. I bet you can't tell when it's 40 degrees if you've got a fever or not, unless you're actually cold??? It does sound like a nasty one-off virus. I loved going around Vietnam with Esther too - she really managed the language and way of life well. Look after yourself, Justine!
come back soon! (and get well!)

ahhh, that sucks. We are partners in getting sick on holiday. Japan misses you! take it easy....!xxxx

tam, when are you heading to tokyo?
kat - i know, i thought of you as a lay there sickly!
Hi Justine! Esther's back but really jet-lagged: getting up at 3am, and packing it in in the afternoon! She also found our 35 degrees really cool! Hope you're fully back to normal!
