A day for bells, watches, phones, station clocks, school clocks, prayer times, opening hours, and the agreements people make with time.
Your apartment in Monaco has a tiny balcony overlooking the harbor, and the geranium in the window box is your quiet companion. You water it each evening, watching the yachts bob in the sunset. A plant at the window is a small green flag that says life can thrive even in the most polished of places.
You stand at the zinc counter of a tiny café, eating a socca and sipping espresso. The cook slides over another slice without asking. Eating fast, you still taste the simple pleasure.
You spot the forest elephant and the drill monkey as distinctive large mammals in Equatorial Guinea's rainforests. You find that residents most commonly keep dogs, cats, and parrots as household pets.
