I’ve got a headache , have so since 431am when it woke me . It’s self inflicted , a retribution . 
I look back and think of the cheese platter for starters , a main consisting of curry chicken , jerk chicken , spare ribs , beef masala , roast turkey , roasted vegetables and fried rice . Afterwards a lemon merengue pie . That’s dinner , before that there was the 3 pina coladas , 2 strawberry daiquiris and 3 Red stripes . Do I need to discuss breakfast ? 
There was exercise , sort of . Is drinking an exercise? Lazy rivering is , isn’t it ? There was a funny moment at Atlantis , that counts . Leroy and I shared a twin tube on the lazy river . It passes a water surge that then sends the tubers around the river with surging waves . They rarely broke but occasionally if you got close to the wall the surging water would climb up the wall and break like a real wave . Everyone avoided it , not me …. or Leroy as he had no choice as he was connected in the twin tube . I eyed it off , looked over the shoulder and there it was , a much bigger roller coming through . ” Leroy let’s get on the wall quick .” ” No dad ” , he screamed . ” Nah , dude this will be awesome “. Too late . I had my back to the wave , Leroy was positioned so he looked towards me and of course the in coming wave. Leroy ‘s eyes were as wide as saucers and his roaring let me know that we were about to catch this baby . And we did………. it picked us up and momentarily slid us along the wall before throwing us out into the middle of the river with a vertical pitch that saw us cannonball straight into another kid ( teenager ) on a tube . He got poleaxed and flipped head first out of his tube into the pathway of two other parents with their kids , totally wiping them out . We landed it and surged forward past the mayhem . Leroy had his hand over his mouth shaking his head in hysterics .Me , I was crying with laughter . The best part was we kept drifting with the current and left the scene of the crime ., leaving flipped tubes and resurfacing heads in our wake . I looked up at the water safety guard and she was shaking her head whilst laughing . ………….. One of the great moments in waterpark history . ” I told you we’d catch it Leroy , even did a floater on the wall and took out a few on the way through “. Aussie , Aussie , Aussie ..Oi Oi Oi .
Of course there was drama too 
The day before leaving to Orlando ,Florida we were watching the news when the opening story started with a report of a dude trying to bring a gun into the airport , creating chaos and a 5 hour lockdown . And we were going there the next day …. you’re kidding ! Getting out of Orlando airport was easy but the security on our return flight created mayhem , with large queues and anxiousness that comes with the thought of missing your flight . ..We made it with sweaty palms ……. On a side note ; the airport in Orlando is new and impressive and shows what a dive LAX really is .
Enough reminiscing, now back to that head ache . I’ve crept up to 191 pounds before this trip , 200 ( is a possibility right now , that’s why I’m starving . 36 hours into a cleanse with hardly any food …. Its fucking killing me . It’s only cause I’m going back to Australia at the end of March I’ve decided to act . I don’t want people looking at the size of my head and pausing , thinking ,”fuck Howie must be a bit too in love with ‘In n Out ‘ , over there . ” That’s why cruise shipping is dangerous , there’s consuming to be done …. all day ! .
PS. This diet cleanse is the worst , I’m suffering . Don’t ever do it … don’t .
