AT 54 - 19th May (644.2)




 I’m sick!!!! Diarrhoea this morning. I walked anyway but no energy. Got to first shelter up 2000feet and have had enough. I’m going to camp early. 11:30 I’m going to drink water and sleep and hope to shake it. I blame the Chinese, food left out for ages can cause issues. I don’t think it is the dreaded Nora virus that is prevalent on the AT. Slept a bit but then threw up everything. I think that’s a good thing. I feel a bit better already. 

Yeager is also sick. We both had the Chinese. 


I’ll see tomorrow how I feel.


Just met a lovely couple and she gave me something to stop the lower end. It’s certainly more pleasant than the wine cork I was using.(joke)
