And so it has. Cold mist blows off the water, whipped by the wind to drive to the bone. A good day for wandering I'm and out of shops in scenic Lunenburg. The city really is charming in spite of the crooked photo.
Tim developed a cold the first day of our trip and I've been assiduous about washing, not sharing food, etc., but spending 24 hours each day together means the germs are always nearby.
Today I succumbed. Scratchy throat. Achy limbs. Not much energy. After a stroll through town, a warming lunch of carrot ginger soup, and a little drive, we gave in and are sipping tea and relaxing in our cozy suite in the heritage house shown above.
Such a shame you both have a cold now Lorrie, wishing you better health soon to continue enjoying your trip. The house you're staying in looks nice, I like the colour.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry the weather and the 'flu cold' has gotten to you both. That's not fun at all. Isn't Lunenburg beautiful? Did you get to see the Bluenose? I hope you are both on the mend soon so you can enjoy the rest of your trip.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry you are not feeling well when there is so much to see. I love the sound of the carrot ginger soup and just relaxing with some tea. I hope that helps.
ReplyDeleteOh I suppose that slowing down on cold, rainy days can be approached with a certain enthusiasm, but not with that cold! These are the scenes that remind me of a book I once tried to read. Feel better soon, you two.
ReplyDeleteHope you are both feeling better and that the weather improves so you can enjoy your visit.
ReplyDeleteHope you'll feel better soon and can get out to roam about real soon.
ReplyDeleteI hope you'll feel better really soon so you can enjoy the rest of your trip. I like the look of that house!
ReplyDeleteI do hope you feel better soon! Lovely spot to sit and drink tea!
ReplyDeleteOh, what a shame that you both are under the weather. I pray that you're soon on the mend and are feeling well enough to make some more vacation memories.
ReplyDeleteGet well soon dear
ReplyDeleteHugs and smiles x
Be better soon, and oh my rain too on vacation...something just is not right with sick and rain and vacation. Keep smiling though~
ReplyDeleteIt looks like a cozy place to be sick but I hope you are feeling much better soon.
ReplyDeleteGet better quickly. I am sure the is a lot more that you would like to.
ReplyDeleteBe well soon Lorrie - hopefully some sunshine will appear and that always helps.
ReplyDeleteWe fly to the UK tomorrow and I'm hoping we don't catch any international 'bugs' on this trip - those darned planes always seem rife with germs, ugh!
Chin up and keep going - hugs, Mary
Too bad, Lorrie. Sending you a virtual cup of chamomile tea with honey and lemon.

Hope that the sun shines and you are both feeling much better before too long. Hope Lunenburg puts on a sunny smile for you tomorrow !
ReplyDeleteSorry you both don't feel well, but it's nice you are able to both rest, and not feel like the other person is missing out on vacation because you are sick!
ReplyDeleteIt looks like a beautiful place to visit! Very charming.

So sorry you have succumbed to the cold. What a lovely place to be sipping tea and recuperating.
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear about the ickies. I hope that you will both be better soon and that the day of relaxing helped. xx
ReplyDeleteOh no, I am so sorry you are not feeling well :( I hope you are back to yourself in no time! Sending hugs and prayers your way!
ReplyDeleteSorry about the rain...and the sore throat. I have such fond memories of Lunenburg...one of our favorite spots in NS.
ReplyDeleteWhat a charming town - and so sad that you have colds - not fun anytime.
ReplyDeleteWhat a shame. Rest up, it's the only cure.
