I put so much into yoga and was very exhausted so I went back to the pad and had a nice afternoon sleep. Again the weather was warm, so sleeping with a base sheet not properly put on and a small blanket was easy. I decided to try sleeping with out pillow over the few nights and actually rather enjoyed it.
I woke around 2 and headed back to the markets, in search of the doughnuts for afternoon tea. I seriously can’t describe how good they are. Next time I am on the east coast I am coming back to Philly just for the cinnamon, glazed and jam doughnuts.
This time I tried one of each. Surprisingly I actually couldn’t finish the last one; it was a vanilla filled doughnut and was just too sweet for me. The chocolate one was also very good.
I met up with Adam, Niel and Max outside Startbucks where we snuck into an upmarket apartment complex and swan in their pool and downed a beer before heading off to meet up with some of their friends.
On the way home I had a burger from a famous burger place. I think it weighed about 700grams. I certainly felt pretty heavy after eating it!
We walked around the corner to a Japanese restaurant where we met up with some of Adams friends and had some “Saka Bombs”. Completely American and I know the Japanese wouldn’t have been impressed. You balance a shot of hot sake using 2 chopsticks on top of a glass half full of beer and then proceed to bang the table until the chopsticks move and the shot falls in the beer, at which point you drink the whole glass.
We headed back to Adams mates place and attempted some drinking games before deciding to retire around midnight. The freedom of living out of home was evident here; we went back and had hookah and some more people came over to say hello. We chatted for a while before I stumbled off to bed, not before setting we all set our alarm clocks for 7am!
