Hysterically running around trying to find a cheap travel clinic: should have thought about vaccinations before. Everywhere so expensive, and so difficult to get an appointment. Have to have the shots by the end of next week. Frantic phone call to family doctor in Denmark: she remembers me, which makes life so much easier. And she sorts everything out so life looks better again.
Ring travel agency to ask whether the trip is going ahead at all, which it is, and I can slowly settle down on the sofa, with Thoreau and a cup of tea - it's difficult to concentrate on reading while life explodes in front of my eyes. Meanwhile Thursday moves towards me rapidly and I'm so not ready. - But at least it will be over after that.
