Bus not til one so had a lie in and popped out for some breakfast. Came back to room and peacefully reading when hostel guy comes banging on the door, apparently check out was 11 not 12 like the sheet in my room said! According to him there's a sign in the reception but seeing as I'm on fourth floor and reception's on 5th i hadn't been there, oops! Went into the lounge of hostel and read and did some puzzles until 1. Headed down outside and sat with bags waiting ...

Had good sleep and eventually woke up about 11 30! Must have needed it. Got up and headed out to the old town. Had a wander around and realised I'd seen most of it in my hunt for a laundry yesterday.

Bloody bathroom door! Went down to breakfast and managed to quickly grab something before they closed, very stroppy man telling me off for being late. Then tried to use the internet but after 2 powercuts, the mouse not working and then the connection failing, gave up! Came back up and had a good old faff. Sorted some stuff out for posting home and repacked my bags. Had a good long shower and finally left the hostel at 1 30. Headed for Port Vell, had a pleasant wa...
