  1. day’s end | large A lot of walking today, a lot of seeing, a lot of coffee drinking. We revisited some places we saw last year, taking it easy while we still get over jet lag and almost two weeks worth of power outage induced insomnia. It’s nice to feel familiar in a city that’s not yours. It’s nice to be able to unwind in that city. I’m relaxing, letting a lot of negative vibes go and trying not to bother my sister and daughter that much with emails about how things are going back home. Trying to be present in my present, as I do.  Watching the sunset by the Balearic Sea sure does help. Tomorrow, the marketplace early in the morning, then a harbour boat tour in the afternoon. Lunch somewhere that is not tapas. Really, there is only so much tapas one can take. I need a meal. Todd is already passed out. Me, I just ordered two cappuccinos because I have two deadlines to meet and I have not started writing yet. I’m gonna be here a while. I’ve grown used to not sleeping, anyway.
