It’s Christmas Eve on Day 13 in quarantine and although I’ll be leaving soon, it’s still tough to be locked in a hotel room on a holiday that I wish I were spending with family or friends. Christmas day tomorrow won’t be any easier, but I’ll be leaving at 7am on the 26th which I’m grateful for.

Dinner was surprisingly good - turkey, grilled vegetables, salad, squash soup, a cookie, and under the roll was a piece of fruitcake. I understand this was special for the holiday, but if the kitchen can whip up something like this for the 100+ people in quarantine, what’s the deal with the basic Thai food every other day?

The pictures from my balcony were amazing. Caught the sunset and yes, the clouds really were pink.

*Also, I finally cracked the code on how to make “tabs” on Squarespace. Had to figure out a bit of HTML & CSS, but problem solved. You can see them in action on “Travel Blogs” & “Articles” in my portfolio
