Well this damn crud that I have just doesn't want to go away. I basically have fallen into a pattern of sleeping two hours, then awake for two hours. Then add to the fact that the people in the room above me seemed to be dancing and jumping all night...no it isn't what you think it is. I called down three times to ask the security to check it out, but I don't thing they took the initiative to find out what the noise was about. Finally I had to change rooms at 4AM. The hotel was basically booked, but they could move me to a room with two double beds. Anything to get me away from Ginger Rodgers and Fred Astaire (if you are under 40 google Fred and Ginger).
I get to my new room after several apologizes from the baggage helper and I finally nod off only to wake up two hours later. I do get up and eat breakfast at the executive lounge. But I almost nodded off sitting and eating breakfast. At the same time, my nose is running, my sinuses are tight and I now have a headache. I get back to the room about 8AM and of course I nod off and get back up around 11AM. I decide to take a shower to maybe have the shower mist help my coughing. Actually I felt relaxed after the shower. but I made the mistake of laying down to read. I again fall asleep around 1PM and woke up around 4PM. I guess I'll need to just suck it up.... try and stay awake. I hit the executive lounge for appetizers but lay off the wine for ginger ale.
Back in the room I start to pack for my trip to Mt. Fuji and Kyoto. I am signed up with a tour which I usually don't do, but decide this time to let "someone else do the driving". I'll probably try and squeeze everything into my backpack and red gym bag, then check the two big bags with bag storage at the hotel, as I did in Rio, Nairobi, Amsterdam and Bangkok when I took side trips from these cities.
