Feeling Unwell

Why does this always happen while traveling? I was finally able to swim, and after not sleeping much at all last night I wanted some exercise. So I looked online, and found this swimming lake in the middle of Wisconsin called Devil's Lake, which was highly recommended. It was a lot further off the freeway than I had expected, but the water was nice and warm, and we had a good time. I'm so glad we decided not to camp! Driving into Madison, through fields of beautiful corn bathed in golden sunset light, I started feeling congested. Then we arrived at a gorgeous new Hampton Inn, with a whirlpool, and I thought that would make me feel better, except that I couldn't resist turning on the bubbles, umbrella showers and fake palm-tree sprinklers and playing in the kids' pool as well. After a glorious hot bath, I still felt ill. We made it as far as the elevator on our way to get dinner, and then we came back up from the car with ramen noodles and Dante made me some in the hotel coffee jug, followed by hot cranberry juice.
