Yesterday was a blast, but also absolutely exhausting.
The morning went well, with some amazing singing and some excellent marks.
The afternoon was a bit bewildering, with many of the horses running not having had a race in several months, thanks to the very wet Cape Town winter. And so although it was run as usual with favourites, and form guides and ranking and ratings, the actual racing seemed to be completely randomised.
Which was a bit frustrating. And rather expensive.
And then the evening: Loud, beery, mildly bawdy. Just what the doctor ordered.
Although not any doctor with even a modicum of medical training.
But it was a lot of fun.
Today, then?
Recovery, Olympics, a quick gym session.
Maybe a bit of bed.
