The Twins Take Two

So I woke up this morning while it was dark. At 5am. Well actually, I woke up every hour from 1:151 am until 5am because I was so worried that I would not wake up. But anyway. I met my kind, motivational friend in front of Cafe O, taped my battered baby toe, and hopped in a cab to the south side of the island.

As the sun rose over the eastern ridge of the island, we climbed and climbed and climbed- up two mountains, across a reservoir, past the pink Parkview castle, and back down into the city of 8 million people.

Birds sang. Clouds parted. I ate a Luna Bar and used my (water) bladder. Hiking is so much better with new toys and no backpack.

Now, I want a nap.

I think I am going to run up the peak to for Book Club. Who wants to join me?
