Last weekend

Lovely weekend. Ate at some lovely restaurants. Went to an outdoor market yesterday. Walked around yesterday. A lot.

Yes, the shoulders are mildly sunburned.

I ate a Whopper yesterday. I should mention that I don't eat at McDonald's or Burger King in the US. I usually make it a point to not eat American fast food while travelling. However, a couple of the people I was with yesterday were hungry and went in to one, and I realized I was hungry, too. The Whopper tasted fine. However, five hours later, the Whopper was like a rock in my stomach. You know how sometimes your body just feels dirty on the inside? While I wasn't terribly hungry last night, I ordered a good-sized meal, just to be able to put something else in my stomach.

The point of this, really, is that I realized how much grease affects your body. The food here is largely without a lot of grease, and any grease in the food is pretty natural (e.g. melted fat from when the steak is cooked on the grill, melted cheese).

My stomach really felt awful yesterday.

Never again!!
