For my mental health I've been playing a retro video game called Vampire Survivors. So much fun. Cost maybe $3. Run around a flat screen trying to stay away from bats, vampires, and skeletons. Start with a whip and go from there.

I quickly ducked into a hotel to get these shots and I’m so glad I did.

It’s so hard to get a sense of how big the crowd is when you’re on the ground.
