Jetty

We had an evenrful day yesterday and I never got around to doing a blog post. My son with CF caught my sore throat/ear/sinus thing the night before. We spent part of the night and much of yesterday dealing with it. Then I went to bed early. As part of our treatment, we walked out on the jetty together yesterday. It was my first time since we got here.

The jetty is a stone structure that goes out into the water, sort of like a pier. It has something to do with guiding ships into the harbor, or so I gather. As you walk out on it and leave behind the land, the air becomes thicker, heavy with water and salt. When we visited here six years ago, we went out on the jetty as a breathing treatment. We went yesterday to help us fully recover from the upper respiratory infection I picked up a few days back, probably from some unwell retiree when I took a shower in the nicer showers. We plan to stick to the cheaper showers in the future. They seem to have a generally younger, healthier crowd.
