January 10, 2008 - On board Professor Multanovskiy
====================================
On having my first spoon of Cereal at Breakfast, my instinct was to throw up. I excused myself and headed to the bathroom. From 9 AM till 4 PM, I was in bed as the crossing of the drake passage was having its effect on me. Determined to make something of this day, I showered and went out on deck hoping that the fresh sea breeze would cure my ills. It was not to be.
I decided to cave in and went in search of the doctor (Raymond) to seek his advice. He recommended that I take PHENERGAN (I think that is the spelling) as a cure for sea sickness and that I continue taking these pills every 6 hours and advised me to lie down after taking the first one. (It does cause drowsiness)
I took the first pill at 5:30 PM and went to bed. The next thing I knew was waking up at 12:30 AM on Jan 11!
I took the next pill and stayed in bed!
