My long absense.....

I apologize for not writing sooner; hopefully, I didnt lose all of you or you were worried sick on pins and needles wondering if I successfully left Bangkok in the pathetic state I was in.
O good God, my Lord...I dont think I've ever been this sick in this way.
So when I left you all, I was in the lounge of my "4 star" hotel writing to you and then went to have breakfast. I had also checked out sites with info on diarrea and stomach bugs. Supposedly, I was supposed to eat only rice (correct), apple sauce????really, toast (correct) and bananas......?????really, really. I tried bananas at breakfast and nearly threw up all over the buffet...honestly, I was the most elegant guest at the hotel:) After having to leave at 12, I wanted to see a little bit of Bangkok, but knew I couldnt move much or stay out in the heat that much...so I went to the BANGKOK MALL!!!! and stayed there for 8 hours...at first, I couldnt beleive I was in a mall but after spending an hour inside i realized how WonderfuL the mall of Bangkok is. Oh the people watching I did, oh the crazy things I found for sale, oh the furry creatures roaming around, and the movie theater/club where during a half hour of commercials, everyone stands up and salutes the thai first family, who evidently stopped the flooding and brought electricity to the people of Thailand.
At 8 I returned to my hotel, picked up my "new clothes", which was my laundry, which cost $20 to have done....but after all I was in a 4 star....but my 3 dresses and all my underwear were nicely pressed and wrapped up in packaging and put in a shopping bag....so worth it!
and then the beginning of my plane, train, boat, and automobile...and in 2 days after taking all of those transports to arrive in Corsica, here I am where I am so lucky to be with two adorable French families that I adore and are taking such great care of me while I am trying to get better. And so this week in Corsica will be all about getting better and I cant think of a better place:)
