10.45pm, Monday May 18, lower bunk ....such a nice day

It is late (yes, yes, in my normal life it is all too early) but I wanted to write a little bit. I have come from a nice dinner with J. The vegetarian restaurant was not open, so we walked a bit and found a little restaurant catering to locals rather than tourists - cheap meals, non-atmosphere, dotted with old men. I had a tortilla verdura, which was a straight omelette, enormous, with canned vegetables, served on a bed of rice with green yoghurty chili sauce. J had grilled chicken on a bed of rice, with fries and salad. We shared a large bottle of beer ($5 solars).

J is a psychologist, finishing her PhD with hopes to be a researcher. We talked a lot about our issues and self-betterment goals. It was nice talking with another open American. Overall it was such a lovely day - sunny (my nose is sunburnt), full of good conversation, gorgeous objects and buildings, adventure, relaxation, triumph. But more detail tomorrow. Now, sleep.
