rain rain on my face, it hasnt stopped raining for days

Here is a little skit i wrote, i hope you like it:

Raincloud (somewhere over mexico): hey, the duecks are in bordeaux, i am going to head over there.

Wind: good idea, lets ruin their vacation. We had a nice day off while sun took our place yesterday while they were travelling, but its time to go back.

Raincloud: Race you there!

That is what we think happens nearly every day.

We are in Bordeaux for the next couple of days, and it is slightly warmer than Brussels, but still raining. We were thinking of renting a car and driving around then tenting at night, but it doesnt look like that will happen for a while now.

Sean and Joel have developed what we think is a deadly fungus on their feet, it is starting to get gangrenous (is that a word? i think so) It smells like a cross between the whisky shits and a rotten turkey, so they have gotten into the habit of sleeping with their feet in plastic bags, which i think only helps the fungus to culture, but at least they can get some sleep in fresher air.

Sean thinks his laundry bag may smell worse, but it hasnt stopped him from rewearing all of his socks and some of his underwear (Sean if you are reading this its time to do laundry buddy).

Sean seems to have the worst luck out of all of us, he has also developed a severe case of dysentry, and is drinking a daily concoction of water, salt and sugar to keep hydrated and his electrolytes up.

Joel, on the other hand, isnt getting enough food in him to even have anything in his bowels to move (Lu, what do you feed this kid at home? i think we should have an offering in church to help pay for your grocery bills. he has also told me that he doesnt have to mow the lawn at home ever, and that instead you do it. that seems a little backwards to me. i can talk to him about it if you want.) He drinks a lot of water to ward off the hunger, but he has lost about 40 lbs, which is quite a bit for a thin boy like Joel. I think i will start preparing him some gruel in the evenings so that the sound of his rumbling stomach (combined with the foot fungus) doesnt keep us all awake at night.

Well, thats all for now...
