Since I don’t have internet access in this new 100RMB/night hotel on Hainan, I get up every morning at 5:00AM, trek the 2 miles to the Lost Hostel and use their wi-fi. Have to do it early, since the speed of the internet connection slows down as more people wake up and get online. So, off I go today, whistling a happy tune, walking the empty morning streetlamp-lit streets of Hainan…..
Yep, just me and my thoughts….an occasional car…..a few chickens….a rat….
Wait a minute!
What’s that? Up in the road…..a head?
Yep, it’s a head allright…and a neck, a torso and a body!
See? I’m not the only one who’s prepared to sleep on the beach to make a point.
He looks European.
Let’s hope he didn’t have a suitcase, backpack or laptop next to him when he went to sleep last night, ’cause this morning…….
I’m not the only one….
