10th October: Palmerston North

Sleep late-ish and then essentially a goof off day. Wander into town, wearing new shoes to break them in, in search of internet café. Duncan said 'everything is on Broadway' and indeed there is one, so some time spent catching up on email, the American elections, and such like.
Kate has sent a long and detailed email castigating me for missing her one year old's birthday, and telling me exactly what I should buy in recompense. Set off in search. Still Broadway, though further down than I'd expected.
Noodles for lunch then carrying on with a book on Stalin started on the plane and then largely set aside for ebooks.
Left foot aching rather, though not in the manner of one that's objecting to new shoes - more the instep.
Set off after dark in search of a meal, but PN largely closing up. Kiwis obviously eat earlier than Brits. So to Pak'n'save for microwave Chinese.
