JET LAG? REALLY?

JET LAG ?

I have never been one to suffer from Jet Lag.  I travel all the time, through many time zones, over oceans, to Asia, to Europe and to Africa.

This time…for the first time….jet lag got me!


My usual practice is to get into a hotel, however many hours I have been flying.. have a shower, then get a massage, then another shower and I am fine.
This time, after 8 hours to Amsterdam then another 8 hours to Nairobi, Kenya, there are no massage therapists available at 4:00AM and I am a mess.  No massage….maybe that is my problem!
I am sitting here staring at the clock. 
The hotel is lovely, the water in the shower warm and inviting, bed comfortable with lots of fluffy pillows….and all I can do is stare at the ceiling.   Help!

This has never happened before and I have been traveling month in and month out for more than 20 years!  So here I sit writing this blog hoping that my own words will bore me so much that I will sleep.

 I have to meet my driver at 7:30AM to fly to Nanuki and my first game drive.  I hope my eyes will close now and open then so that I can take notes and pictures of what I am seeing.


Getting sleepy now…perhaps this writing thing works…..wish me luck…the lights are going out!
