Sheets smell like monsoon stone. Ceiling had a drip at 2am. Host is kind. We are here two more nights. Not trying to extract a discount. Trying to sleep. 26 Aug, Polhena reef.

Ask for a fan, dry sheets, and a bucket under the known drip. Leftover wet in a Polhena reef house is ordinary. Stone holds water. A room change if they have one, quietly. Do not invent a closure or a mould epidemic. Do not write a novel at breakfast. If it is still dripping on the bed, move. If it is just smell, fan and a walk.
