april 27 – sleep sleep sleep eat shop sleep walk shop eat drink pack sleep

sleep late. gradually slide out of the apartment around 230p into a gorgeous frankfurt afternoon, grab a weird lunch at an indian place that was supposed to be closed, incite argument between hostess and chef, head to antique shop and pick up random stuff, back to the apartment for phone calls, then walk towards merianplatz & dinner. beautiful walk through sunny frankfurt, through old neighborhoods, over bridge/river, through town fair, ultimately meeting matt peterson (my friend from l.a., living/working in frankfurt) and his girlfriend fritzi (german native), & george (al’s old friend from san antonio – at some point i was involved in a high school motion picture production of “old man and the sea” featuring george as the old man & al & i as supporting cast) at flipper’s for dinner & german bier. a real day off, rest/recovery before our flight.
