Not Socially Inclined

Not socially inclined 

We drove to Cascais for two days holiday at 
a posh hotel and I promptly fell ill a sort of fever
I do not travel well.

My wife and her extended family had a swell 
time, while I shivered under three blankets and
claimed the air condition was sat to freezing.

On the third day I arose, had solid breakfast
no had seen anyone recover so quickly, it is
I said because I’m a Norwegian   
  
After breakfast and packed suitcases time for
goodbyes, lots of kissing and hugs 
and they all hoped I would be better next year.
