When you think of resting, what do you think of, normally? Especially, if you re going to a nice beach resort or sunny location?

One way to rest I would not have considered was flat on my back, sweating profusely with a fever.

However, even though I came down with a right dose as soon as we got off the plane, and was pretty much further floored by the unexpected chill, wind and rain that hit the following day, my four days or so pretty much in the bed above was where I found rest.

Yes, Ami and I did not get to use the resort facilities available to us as we had planned, and did not even get to swim ONCE, but we did have a charming, restful time and my flu was under control for the trip home the night before yesterday.

We have since had a wonderful time passing through Ireland again and are about to board for The Emirates. (More in the next post about the wonderful provision of the Lord we saw in Dublin).
