This has been such a busy week that I'm ready to get back on a 17 hour flight if only to get some down time! I can't believe that here it is, a Firkin Friday and I'm not going out. I have to work tomorrow so I'd rather not be tired when the alarm goes off in the morning. I say this every single week and every single week I'm wrong but I'll try it again. Next week should be easier.

The sun slowly gave way to clouds then rain. This is not a city for walking in the rain. Before it was time to shelter and stay dry, I did one last walk around the area. The business district and surrounding areas are clean and little graffiti or murals. Found this flamingo? near the old city. While the leaves probably congest the waterways, they do look cool floating on the water. Ornate door entrance. Soon after this was taken, the clouds and mist lowered and the top of tower stayed obscured for the rest of my stay. I decided to pass on paying to go to the top when there was no visibility. Back in my hotel room I saw this rainbow emerge right before the rain started pelting down.
Firkin Friday, eh? Well, that came and went without me ever realizing it... I suppose I'm better off too, as I woke up with a sinus headache (human barometer at work, here). Have a good flight!
