Domestic Duties Abroad...

kybearfuzzI spent the majority of yesterday working on reports. I have to force myself to remember that I'm not over here on holiday. Still, I can squeeze a bit of sightseeing in when possible. On my walking around yesterday, I finally found the internet cafe, in this little dive of a place with a counter clerk who spoke almost no English. It was a bit creepy, I think I prefer the visitors centre.
I also found part of a 14th century lookout tower on my way back to the hotel last night. It was being slummed by some local teenagers, so I held off visiting until this morning. It's really quite impressive considering it's age, but sadly the local teens have taken to leaving their trash about and some minor graffitti graces it's interior.
So, I dropped off my laundry at a cleaner for about $10, which is a bargain compared to what the hotel charges. Just a few odds and ends to deal with before packing tonight for England. The traveling I admit is starting to wear on me a bit, I'm starting to long for home, but that's typical as the third week is about to begin.
... and thankfully, there are now three bearded daddy bear types in the visitors centre right now... sigh... :)
