Home Sweet Home

Sun PM: 5.5K in 31 minutes

I got in at 8:00AM Sunday morning after a 52 hour trip home including my
walking tour of Buenos Aires. Some strategic use of sleeping pills got
me home relatively free of jetlag, and I had an easy day settling back
in at home. In the early evening I decided to get out for a short sharp
run just to remind my legs what I expected from them and to get myself a
bit more tired for a good night sleep.

I didn't feel too flash on the run. I did it mostly at about 5:40 pace
with slightly laboured breathing. I'd hoped to feel a bit better at this
pace, but it may just be due to fatigue from the flight.

I have neglected to tell you all a good story from my last night in
Merida. Listen up, Nat - you'll like this one.

Apart from the Teleferico, Merida has another claim to fame. It holds
the ice creamery with the world largest number of flavours, so I had to
visit it.

Now I reckon you don't go to an ice creamery with a record like that and
order vanilla choc-chip, so I had three scoops, which were:

- Beer
- Cheese
- Garlic

Now, the beer ice cream was OK - I'd go so far as to say nice.

The cheese ice cream was tolerable.

Garlic ice cream is pretty much as you would expect - a crime against
humanity. It was bloody horrible, but it was ice cream so I finished it.

Clint thought his Brandy & Sardine ice cream was pretty good.
