The food in #Zanzibar is as good as advertised. Swahili and Indian and Middle Eastern, sometimes fused, sometimes not.
I haven’t had anything I haven’t thoroughly enjoyed. Perhaps too much.
Restaurant food, night market food, street food… all so, so good.

In light of all the craziness in the world, this is a small complaint, but if you happen to be in East Africa for travel or business - DO NOT book with Precision Air. www.precisionairtz.com
Nothing like booking months in advance to assure #travel, only to be bumped for “overbooking”.

To call the new underground entrance and cycling parkade for Zurich HB “well used” would be an understatement.
By rough count, 3,000+ bikes in here.

Rain or shine, bicycle use and commuting in Europe is so refreshing.

Triathlon training morning with kiddo. She crushed me in the bike-spin class-bike (to, at and from Limitless Training).
My favourite post-workout refuel breakfast is “El Hefe” + 2 fried eggs and a double-shot of hot sauce at the Village on Shelbourne.

Voted at advance poll.
Still a short line at 8:45.
Election workers noted it was very busy today, even lined up out the door at dinner time.

The American legacy media, heck, all media, will surely call this for what it is. Totalitarianism? Authoritarianism? Fascism?

Exciting Hour / Mat Mania. I wasn’t even a big wrestling fan but this game was way ahead of its time for playability and humour. More than a tad offensive and racially insensitive in hindsight however.

Watching news from the States re senior leadership nominees, and I can’t help but think of the mention in last week’s Economist, paraphrased:
“Kakistocracy is a word you’ll become quite familiar over the next 4 years.”
Hope it’s only that long. And that it doesn’t spread too far.
