The 'White' Diet

28 July 2008 | Bahia del Sol, El Salvador
by the Infirmed
Currently suffering from yet another bout of food poisoning. This time it was from something we cooked on the boat. ARGGGG! Scott said his stomach felt a little grumbly but nothing came of it. Maybe it was the combination of the wine I drank to combat all the stress I was feeling.
The best thing to do in this case to not take any medicine and let your body cleanse itself. This, including not making it harder to digest things that are hard to digest so one should only eat saltine crackers, rice, water, watered down fruit juice, water with sugar and salt in it. Stuff like that. So you get tired because you have no energy from lack of nutrition and hydration. I decided to start packing but had to do it in between naps/lying down for a bit. I was hoping that I'd lose a little weight for my re-entry into the 'Land of Youth & Beauty' (the states) but there are those oh so yummy (not really) hamburgers at the hotel for when I can eat. Oh well.

Westsails have an interesting history. They were designed after pilot boats, boats that were made very sturdy so they could spend hours in rough seas. They were over built with fiberglass so they are thicker than most fiberglass boats and are wider (beamier) than most other boats for their length [...]
