For a couple
of days I had a cold, at least I thought I did.
Lois thought maybe I was allergic to something as it came and went so
fast.
After that
Lois developed a cold that was moving to her chest so she went to see the ship’s
doctor. He treated her with multiple
remedies and ensured she would be okay to make the trip home. Lois was quite impressed with the doctor. She felt he was very thorough and mindful of
her situation. He had actually been a doctor
on a Russian trawler off of Newfoundland for 6 months and had travelled in
Newfoundland. As a result his English was
reasonable.
The next day
after this was our last day and we had it free.
Our plan had been to go into Moscow and just poke around on our own. We were an hour from Red Square so Viking had
a bus to take us in. Lois told me to go
and I went. While walking around on my
own, I fell. I went to my left as I was
trying to protect my camera. My knee
hurt but other than that I seemed no worse for wear. Several people came to my rescue but I said I
was all right and proceeded on my way.
My pants weren’t ripped so I thought nothing of it. About an hour later I looked at my watch and
I had shattered the crystal, 2 hours later I realized I had lost my prescription
sunglasses in the process. When I
stopped for lunch I looked at my knee and it was quite bloody. My knee is still sore but getting better.
