The 5am Tuxedo Sprint

He was so fast that the dickie bow must have flown off. 

There was the excitement of yesterday evening and then I set up my alarm clock for 4am and when I arrived at the bottom of Grafton Street at 4.30am... they were all gone! It is true that it looked like a lot of them had peaked yearly the night before (with a few cases who I guess didn't make it into the Ball as they were unconscious at 10.30pm...) 

After a short and patchy night, it was great to cycle to the Vico for a refreshing swim. The sea was once again green and very lovely. 

It was great to meet up with Jeano who, unbelievable as it may seem, had never been to the Vico. She'll be back! 

Extra 1: spot the Jeano (first prize: water kefir grains) 
Extra 2: the making of Jeano's blip - or attempt thereof.
