Awake: 5:15am Light rain & wind Overnight @ Nagoya, Japan
Breakfast @ 6:30 sharp…. & again, we are # 1 & # 2 in line. We hang around
for 2.5 hrs & kibitz with the rest of our gang when they show up for
breakfast.
The typhoon winds & rain are now in the area but not near as strong as was
forecasted. So we figure, with these winds & rain, the temp should be more
comfortable for walking around…so a shopping we will go. Back to the Daiei
store for 9 more jars of Nescafe Excella Instant Coffee. We also look
around for a silk scarf for my cousin but none to be had in this store.
Next we find our way into the Gold’s Gym of Nagoya where we buy a muscle
shirt for Frank back in Lodi, CA. We think he may be collecting them from
around the world.
Mid afternoon, nurse Kathy is called into action: Kevin is not feeling
well & his body temp is registering 102.4. Kathy suspects that Kevin
became de-hydrated yesterday @ the World Expo by not drinking enough
water….becoming de-hydrated can lead to a fever if not properly treated.
Nick & Eriko call & plan a 5:00pm lobby rendezvous. When we meet, we
realize there is no plan for dinner….but we’ll find something. One minute
up the street & we are passing the Vietnamese restaurant that was booked
up last week…. so tonight we try again. Yes, they can handle our 12.5
group. Kevin is not feeling well & is napping in their room.
We realize this restaurant is special (that means expensive) so all of us
except Nick & Eriko, share a meal….even Don & Josie. Nick & Eriko end up
having more food than they can eat so they share with the rest of us. Our
meals were top notch but it wasn’t enough to squelch the hunger….so some
of our group headed for the store for snacks afterwards. Then back to our
hotel where Kathy & I join Mary Jo, Corinne, Zack & Katrina for the card
game, “Phase 10.” We played for 1.5 hrs & Zack won with Kathy coming in
2nd place. It was fun!
Lights out: 11:18pm
