So last night, my plan was to go back to the hostel, drink some tea, maybe take a nap, and make supper. Instead, I ended up in a little local bar at 4:30pm getting blitzed with an American journalist.
A slight change in plans!
We were supposed to go for one beer, but got into a long conversation, and pretty soon the locals were buying us drinks. The manager of the bar even bought Andrea (the journalist) a pack of cigarettes. Somehow we managed to stay there until about 10pm. The entire time, I kept thinking to myself "I need to get back and make supper!". This is a lesson I keep relearning the hard way: Do not drink on an empty stomach! This morning, I went through a period of what I am sure hell must be like while trying to get up and ready.
I was going to go on a walking tour but I don't think I have the energy... I might go on a smaller one later in the afternoon!
