There are a few cats who live along the street. I’ve tried making friends with them, but they have important cat business to do, and can’t be wasting time with people who aren’t offering premium snacks. Which seems fair.
I spotted, but didn’t photograph, a black cat who was being a Mighty Hunter one morning; Hiding behind a step with just their eyes showing, lining up on their prey. Which turned out to be a flying bug which immediately scarpered.
Something that’s still happening is people wandering in off the street & asking about vacancies, though more in the daylight hours, thankfully. One group did arrive late, after reception closed but while Phai was still here, bluntly/rudely saying that they were here to check in, which was a bit of a surprise, given that the hostel was full.
They did have a reservation; For a different hostel. Because, as a friend put it, “Reading Is Hard”. Seriously, the sign is bigger than I am. They must have simply walked up to the first hostel they saw on this street & assumed it was the right/only one.
Probably every second business on this street is a hostel.
Wat Lok Moli
Wandered through this temple, just down the main road, trying to stay out of the way of people visiting for spiritual purposes & hopefully succeeding.
I went for a walk around the perimeter of the Old City, because I couldn’t decide what to do, so figured I might as well be indecisive while walking.
It ended up being a nice evening in the hostel; A bunch of folks sitting around and chatting. And I learned that I’m not the only one who hates booking flights and finds it super-stressful.
