It was the Best of Days...It was the Worst of Days...

Tuesday was sooo much fun!! One of our friends on the drama team that we’ve been working with owns a rabbit farm and he invited us to come see it! It was so fun to see all his rabbits and we even got to hold a couple of them! One of the rabbits had just had babies so we were able to see bunnies that were only 5 days old!! They kinda looked like rats with longer ears because they had no fur yet...but they were still sooo cute!!



And then this friend took us somewhere for dinner and the little restaurant that he took us to had....PIZZA!!! The 3 of us had just been talking about foods that we missed and pizza definitely made the list! So we ate some pizza and had ice cream for dessert!! Yeah – pizza and ice cream in one day!!! We were sooo lucky...


...or so we thought...


That night as we were writing our blog updates, Janna and I started to feel a little nauseated. We tried to shake it off but it just kept getting worse and worse. And then Jamie started to feel sick too!! Before we could figure out what was wrong, all 3 of us were rushing for the bathroom! It was literally one of the worst nights of my life!! I haven’t been sick like that in over 10 years but that night it kept me up for about 4 hours! Needless to say, we did not get much sleep that night and the next day was spent lounging, sleeping and not eating! We did eventually work up the courage to try some bread and water but that’s it. We are pretty sure we got food poisoning from the pizza so we definitely will not be going back to that restaurant every again!!! And I doubt we will even be able to have pizza in Benin ever again!!
