The multi-storey hotel stands in the middle of a bustling city.
The watchers at the window on the eighth floor look down onto a large multi lane crossroad. All manner of vehicles and pedestrians move around the scene, all controlled by never-ending lights. Ahead of this and beyond, a busy cityscape beckons. For these watchers, after breakfast, the day begins. Out onto the pavement and the heat and humidity of the morning, across the road and up the steps beside a neighbouring building. A long stroll along the building’s side, with its small shop fronts on one side and a long row of chairs and tables set up on the other. At the far corner, a short walk to the steps that lead to a station. Down one elevator, then another. Finally, deep underground, a great concourse, with its many lines and destinations.
The city above beckons, again.
