Melbourne Work Trip

So at the moment i am in Melbourne for work for three day, now your first thought might be why am I blogging when i should be out exploring the city and having fun, well that was my plan until i got sick.
Woke up on Saturday with a croaky voice, no big deal i thought, that is until i woke up on sunday morning with a cold, great flying out to Sydney and i got this stupid cold, fantastic... NOT!
Thinking positive, thinking all i needed was a good night sleep and to keep my fluids up and i would be fine, Hotel bed AWESOME! sooo comfy and warm, who wouldn't have an awesome sleep and woke up refreshed and health... ME
By the time i woke up this morning i knew that i was a goner, eating breakfast was harder then it should have been, who knew that eating and breathing at the same time could be so hard!
So before work, dropped into a 7/11 to grab some cold fighting items, head into work with the postive thinking that all would be great and i would start to feel better.
I WAS WRONG!

This is how i have spent my evening....
Dinner at 6pm
In Bed by half past 6
Watch a bit of tellie,
Lights out by 7pm,
Feel even worse by 8pm, can't sleep due to headache and not able to breath through my nose... all up feeling like DEATH WARMED UP...YUCK!
So 8:15pm on the phone to reception to find out where the local chemist is.... Just down the road PERFECT.

So begins another mission for cold/flu fighting mission....
Heads down the road to the chemist and miss it by 2 min! Stupid chemist! But lo and behold across the road an IGA thank goodness, that will do until tomorrow when i can get to a chemist for some stronger drug!

The end product of my mission, and yes that is toilet paper cause i ran out of tissues :( Fingers crossed that this works and I'll feel better tomorrow.

BTW here is what my hotel room looks like....






I have a spa and awesome bath products, i also get a dressing grown and slippers and mints left on my bed when they turn it down!!!





An awesome hotel, bedroom and bathroom are the best! Gotta love that MBF look after their staff and never like to put them up in a hotel with less the 4 and 1/2 stars.
Love it!

Good night!
