We arrived at our hotel before eight in the morning, grateful for the room that was available, determined somehow to beat the fatigue that was to come. Just a few hours sleep we said, and set the alarm for lunchtime, waking in a fog, forcing ourselves into the heavy tropical outdoors for the afternoon.
The fog in our brains didn’t lift, the coffee didn’t hit wherever caffeine is supposed to hit, we returned to our hotel at six, ate early and were in bed by eight, determined to get a proper sleep.
We did too, until not long after midnight when we woke, together as though an alarm had alerted us each to the other’s state of mind.
