Picked a great day to come here (advance work for cruise). Things somewhat calm this evening — I arrived in midst of the madness, thanks to cabdriver with chutzpah. Folks seem upbeat (just came back from a pub). Location where bus was bombed is close to our hotel, but there are cops galore in area. Rainy and overcast; darkness descends on another dark day. Will have to console myself with knowledge that, in the end, the bastards that did this will be killed, and become Satan’s boytoys.
