Backwards Motion Sickness

Okay, leave it to me to have to be difficult.

Mark and I had only a tinge of motion sickness the very first day of the cruise, but it was easily slept off.  Mark thinks it was because he put his patch on a little late and I think I had a bit due to the Dramamine I took.  We were more sleepy than anything.

The rest of the time we were on the cruise and in port - we didn't have any trouble!  It was great.  There were times you didn't even realize you were on a boat - like when Mark and I were dancing to the 80's music.  There were also times that you could feel it, but it was natural and normal to feel that "sway" after all we were on a ship.

Well, on our drive home from Jacksonville, Betsy became sea-sick while walking on dry land.  To her it was as if the whole world were rocking back and forth, or as if she were in a swing going forwards and backwards or from side to side.  It was an awful feeling.  Mark drove the rest of the way home, just to be safe.

Unfortunately the feeling didn't go away for nearly 10 days. (actually I still feel it from time to time).  It is the weirdest feeling and one I'd prefer to never have again.

Mostly I was nervous about having the feeling while traveling with Jessica - but it wasn't a problem.
