I got up about five thirty and went out to talk to him but he ran off. I thought I’m up anyway so I went down to the river for a cigarette with my camera, nothing outstanding so I went back to bed.
I actually managed to stay in bed until about eleven which seems appropriate now that I’ve just noticed the date, there was a minutes silence with my head in my hand when i sat up out of bed. I went across to the hotel restaurant for breakfast and took my book down to the river and read for a while, I’ve started Yann Martel’s “Life of Pi”, Stephen Hawkins is a bit of a heavy read for now.
Since I felt rubbish with little energy and the day was mostly wasted I went back to my room and watched a couple of movies then went for some mid afternoon lunch just up the road then wandered down to the river for sunset photos.
You know how it is, you're just sitting there having a bite to eat and balloons randomly float by.
Kids at afternoon assembly lowering the flag and singing (presumably) the National Anthem.
Still feeling crappy, I just got a chicken baguette from the hotel restaurant and took it to my room and did some more reading before an early night.
