The 'faulty towers' like accommodations is proving to be a constant source of amusement, however, not a place to get much sleep. Unlike previous accommodations it is not my neighbours keeping me up. Rather three events usually wake me up every hour:
- Similar to Zambia there are a few roosters within proximity to the hostel that start annoying me at 4:30 AM.
- Throughout the night and early morning there is usually one car alarm going off each hour. My assumption is that someone is trying to informally distribute wealth. Each alarm usually goes off for 5-10 minutes before it is turned off.
- Two walls of my hostel room are entirely windows. This provides a great view of the city through the 'somewhat' clean windows. Unfortunately, it also provides a ledge for pigeons to congregate on once the sun rises. There oh so pleasant sounds usually start after the car alarms end - I guess no one wants to steal a car in the day light hours!
Since the weather is absolutely beautiful (unlike Cape Town) I am willing to contend with interrupted sleep.

Curses! My last comment didn't register, and it had some very witty relations between your "mystery meat" dish, and the pigeons roosting outside your window. Glad to hear you're having fun, and yet, still finding time to forward the belated birthday picturs. Thanks, Ryan. Thanks a bunch.
