Around The World In 80 Waves

After a night having the dorm to myself there was a new bloke in there last night who I can only assume is Rip Van Winkle. he was asleep when I got back from downtown at 9pm and was still asleep when I left to type this up 12 hours later. Will prod him later to check he isn’t dead if he hasn’t moved when I get back.

I’m still adjusting from UK time so was up before dawn again, so decided to break out my trainers and go for a run around Central Park. It is a damp grey day here in the Big Apple but it was a lovely run which included a lap of the Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis Reservoir where I ran past the water tower which is the climax to Marathon Man. No Nazi war criminals, terrifying ental expriences, fortune in diamonds, or concealed blades in evidence though and judging by the looks I was getting from folk coming the other way I think I probably looked more like I was recreating a scene from another New York based movie. Godzilla.
