out of order

I am sorry for the recent lull of activity here on my travelogue. I have been sick pretty much for a week straight- spending most of my time in bed. My camera has pretty much just been gathering dust over on my shelf, so no photography has been accumulated during these days either. I feel like someone could have stuck an "out of order" sign on my forehead on Monday, and only yesterday would there have been evidence of good reason to remove it. I hope to be back in circulation this week...so stand by for further reports from oriental Asia :)
