Bus to Miri

I'm on a bus bound for Miri. Yesterday was uneventful. I spent about two hours trying to figure out how to add another seven days to my cell phone sim card, an adventure that ended in a 7-Eleven. I should know by now to go there first for everything.

I was up really early this morning, 4:30. Yuck. I want to leave the hotel by 5 to get a Grab to the bus station before 5:30 to get my ticket printed for the 6 am bus. I thought I could just leave the hotel. Nope. The steel bar door at the top of the stairs--the only exit--was not just closed; it was padlocked shut. Fortunately, the proprietor lived in the very first room, so I was able to wake him up to let me out. I have to admit, fire exits are something the US takes for granted. I got.to the bus station in plenty of time, but still. Wow.

So long [for now] and thanks for all the fish. ✌️

P.S.: I did go to Pizza Hut and had a nice salad...then got two McDonald's cheeseburgers to take to the room for breakfast. I'm good and bad. 🤣En savoir plus
