April 11th: Rest Day in Bumiayu
Day 180
My bowels didn’t let up but thankfully I still had an appetite. Even though we were told that our cheap room didn’t include breakfast, the ladies who work at the hotel delivered two dishes of fried rice with eggs on top and two cups of tea in the morning to the room. I mistakenly wolfed down my breakfast and soon decided that we wouldn’t be going anywhere today. As for the culprit, we think it was dinner the previous night. We ate at a local mall because there weren’t any restaurants in our vicinity. We’ve been fortunate so far but I still hope this passes quickly.
On a side note, I am a complete convert to the butt gun. Basically what in the west we would use at the sink to rinse dishes is attached to the water line next to the toilet. You just grab, squirt and pat dry, no wiping needed. This has saved my a great amount of discomfort and I’ve never been cleaner.
