No updates yesterday because, well, I didn’t drink any tea yesterday. I was down with a fever after that very long and unpleasant flight. I didn’t want to drink tea in that kind of condition.
I’m now drinking some Lapsang Souchong to cure my caffeine headache. It was getting unbearable. I am brewing it more or less English style with a big white porcelain pot. My instinct is to pull the leaves out much sooner than I probably should, but even after only about two minutes of infusion the tea is already wonderfully smokey, but at the same time smooth and sweet.

Get well soon. Airplane is a roost for a lot of nasty illnesses.

Yeah, I am always amazed at the ability of FAs to remain unsick in such a nasty environment.
