16 November 2021

Day two of quarantine.  The worst thing that has happened so far was not getting my breakfast delivered yesterday morning.  Turns out I didn't have the little table outside my door that indicated a quarantine room.  Now that I have the table, I haven't missed a meal.  It was actually delivered very quickly once I pointed out that I hadn't been fed.  They felt REALLY bad.  I probably need to miss a few, at this point.  The food is TOO tasty and there's a lot of it.  But it IS something to break up the day and I look forward to each meal.  I've heard from a fellow traveler, on his way to the launch site, who chose to go the true quarantine hotel route.  It's cheaper but he's virtually a prisoner.  There's a guard at the end of the hall who has to approve a two hour walk every day.  Here, we're free to come and go as long as we keep our distance from people.

Thank goodness for the Discovery channel.  I'm learning a lot about fishing for crabs, gold mining at the bottom of the ocean, drug sniffing dogs, border patrol, New Zealand customs agents.... The list goes on.  One show I've seem promos for is Naked Attraction.  It's a British dating show where people see a lineup of potential dates whose naked bodies are gradually revealed to them, from the feet up.  The person making the selection has to get naked before they can choose.  Good Grief.  

Had a nice run this afternoon.  It was much needed exercise.  The temperature was in the 40's, so very comfortable.

Tomorrow is test day!  Very exciting.
