Before I left home, I had a Nintendo DS with Dr. Kawashima's Brain Training, which I used occasionally. One of the things it's meant to improve is your memory. Well now I (and you) will get to see if it actually works - I lost my blognotes and now have to blog from memory.
I say "lost" when in fact my bag containing said notes was stolen - but stolen from a bar in the wee small hours of the night. It was partially (some would say wholly) my fault for bringing the bag out with me in the first place. As I learned later my bag wasn't the only one stolen that night. Other people that fell asleep in hammocks (in the same outdoor bar) awoke the next morning to find their pockets emptied.
So now I have to soldier on with the blog, sans the notes for the rest of China and the whole of Vietnam. I'll have to write from memory, with some help from the photographs I took. As someone who has delegated the task of my memory to computers and mobile phone reminders, this is not an ideal situation. I can't remember the last time I had to use my memory like this.
