Slightly dubious about my ability to navigate back to the hotel but I am sure it will be fine. I should have brought my GPS out, given I have a coat with me and could easily have stashed it in a pocket, but hindsight is 20-20 (or 6-6, as we say in metric).
Although I am absolutely certain I was supposed to take my key out with me (after all, there is no reception to hand it in at, plus I was indirectly told the same earlier) it is nevertheless mated to a substantial chunk of wood, as typically employed by hotels to ensure it's more convenient for you to hand it in than take it out with you. Still, the streets here are rather underlit (this is a small town, a sign earlier said the 2002 census showed a population of under 2000 people, though doubtless it has grown on the tourism and mescaline industries since), and I may find it handy to have a two-by-four to fend off attackers, be they canine or human. ;-)
Maybe I should try to just get blind drunk and rely on my beer scooter. :-)
It must be marvellous being in a town of under 2000 people down there......
