Virus

Just in case some of you think this world cruising is just fun and games for the light hearted.
After we left our last anchorage we went in to the Rebak Island marina.  I just wanted to visit for 1-2 days to check out their haul out facilities for possible future use.  But before we could leave I came down with some virus.  101-102 degree fever for 5 days with the usual yucky other symptoms.  Sometimes on the way to the toilet, I had to look out for monitor lizard attacks
Other times  got good views of the local Oriental-Pied Hornbill
After four days of almost being bedridden we were able to move the boat to the main island of Langkawi.  Were we need to be to resupply, clear out and find a doctor if needed.  Continue to improve so on the 2nd day we finish stocking up and get cleared out.  Ready to leave with the tide at sunup.   Since Langkawi is a duty free port we are now well supplies with gin, rum and other essentials!  Thailand here we come
