They lost the hat

Woke up early to write my talk for tomorrow, then realised I wasn’t going to be able to sit and work without waking my room mate, so got out and went for an early morning walk down by the water instead. Saw the sun rise, cormorants, jelly fish, a lot of people exercising more vigorously than I was, and some water rats.
Good session of talks, followed by lunch and another walk in search of ice cream. Eventually had to give up on procrastination and write my talk, which took a fair bit of the afternoon and evening, interrupted by a couple of hours of Zoom meetings with collaborators. Missed the Retreat dinner, but did score some pretty nasty room service food…
