Markets

Today is just one of those days that I just could really be bothered to move.

Woke and took the doggo out with Lucy, we met Tom and Aggy out aswell at the dog park. Lots of watching other dogs and making sure lenny didn't barrel headfirst into the pond.

Then Lucy and I popped to the market so she could buy some coffee. Before going back to he house.

I then decided that I would go back to the market on my own and do a bit of that part of the city. Its closed Sunday, Monday so today was my last opportunity. And my gosh, it was busy. The food stalls were already half empty when I arrived at 12,30! I wandered around and had a look at all of the different stores before stopping at a panini shop Tess had said I go it. The most expensive panini of my life, €15 but worth it. I got prosciutto, mozzarella and tomatoes cause they were all the same price so I went with the most expensive sounding one because value for money!

Anyways, the panini was great and then I just sort of lost all my energy. It's like I ate, and my body then decided it wanted to nap. Unfortunately, my cough is just as bad today as yesterday and people were beginning to give me funny looks for coughing. I mean it's not covid, its allergies, but they are still very touchy over here about it all. So I just decided to head back to the house.

I stopped off at this insane stall full of amazing cakes. Staring at them all, I think I figured out the worst part about solo travelling. Alone I could choose one. With someone else we could have bought 4 and shared, but no. I'm alone. So I did the gracious thing and bought myself 2, I had to make up for the sadness I was feeling with more cake. It was very disappointing, I could have easily bought more. And they were definitely worth it. The baklava was divine and the lemon tart perfect. 100% worth it, very sad I cannot go back for more.

Then I just hopped on the bus back to the house. It was still within the cheaper fare timings so that definitely made up for the extra cake. It also started to drizzle which made me damp, but it's so warm I was dry in seconds.

Back at the house I watched the School for Good and Evil. The book is better, but then they always are. Responded to emails, did some budgeting and relaxed. I fly to Cairns on Tuesday so am beginning my plans for my next city.Leia mais
