Hi All!
So I made it! Flight was uneventful (always nice), and I actually got sleep on the plane!
I’ve been very fortunate in having a good friend (Peter) hook me up with an place to stay. Spoiled on day one. Next week will be the actual start the life of a bum, I mean backpacker.
Walked around a lot on Friday, visited some old spots I’ve been before. Had a lovely family dinner Friday night, had a lot of fun with all the “lost in translation” jokes.
Saturday, I got to sleep in till almost noon! Let’s hope the jet lag transistion is complete in only one or two nights! Sat in a coffee shop for a long time, taking in the city and people watching. Walked around the Albertina Museum in the afternoon. Went out Saturday night with Peter and his close friends. Had some decent Mojitos even!
Today, it’s a relaxing day. I’m playing things by ear and seeing where the days goes. I do love though watching a group of 6 order a round of beers at 10am. It’s quite refreshing! Then I pull an “Andrew” and quite amazingly lost only to magically come upon where I was trying to get to in the first place, only 3 times the distance walking. Oh well.
