...the subsequent silver linings


Minutes before we had passed a 3 star hotel which, if you aren't aware is a step up from a hostel. At this point I would have slept comfortably on a brothel floor, but needed to unpack and use the toilet so we treated ourselves to the 3 stars and within minutes of hitting the mattress fell fast asleep. We woke around 8pm, showered, got dressed and headed out to find some sustenance in the way of liquid grapes and shoe string carbs. After perusing the Christmas kiosks that lined the streets with leather goods, wool sweaters, cheap silk ties and beautiful denim we wandered into a fabulous culinary "hole-in-the-wall" to end a rather shitty day of travel over some hot food and dry wine.
