Onward to the other side of town

Time: 0700h
Temperature: 11°C.
Sky: Dark

My sleep pattern is still a bit off, sleeping at 9pm, waking at 5am. Oh well, at least I get a good start on breakfast at 7am.

Today I change accomodations from the Google provided hotel to Airbnb, with my host Ismenia. It's not too far away, but as I understand my local geography, it would be regarded as the other side of the city. I was most surprised to find that Dublin's population is only 500,000. I figured that, being a small town Auckland boy, every city in the northern hemisphere would leave me breathless at the population. Living here would seems like it would be odd for me, moving from a "big" city like Auckland.

I shall endeavour to disprove my old man status by staying up past 9pm tonight.
