I'm pretty sick all of a sudden. I blame my previously sick roommate entirely. I had to miss the afternoon session today, because I just couldn't make it through. Then I slept all afternoon, and I think that has made a difference, though I'm still far from through. Fortunately I didn't miss another one of the highlights of the tour... a trip to the Commission cafeteria. Undoubtedly the best cafeteria I have ever been to. THey subsidize the food for their employees, so its unreasonably cheap. I had a steak dinner today, along with mountains of fruit, juice deserts, and soup for the paltry sum of 8 euros, roughly 12 dollars. The other days I skipped the steak, and the total came to only 5 for pasta + extras. The whole tour has been so impressed by it.
The picture is of the area immediately outside our hotel. They had a giant carnival yesterday, with rappers, marching bands, hot dogs, singers, prizes, and games. Just in time for us to have to hunker down and work on our presentation.

Really? You're blaming it entirely on the roomate? Nothing you've been up to in the past few days could possibly have helped along the illness, huh?
That said, I hope you're feeling better!
I'm sticking with that theory. Further vindicating it, almost everyone else is now sick too.
