Palindromes and Pavements 11,112 Steps in New Jersey.
There is something incredibly satisfying about hitting a number like 11,112. It’s almost a palindrome, and it’s definitely a sign of a productive day! Today, Tuesday, May 5, 2026, was my second full day in the USA, and I spent it deep diving into the suburban charm of Old Bridge, New Jersey.
The Beauty of the American Streetscape
As I continue to adjust to the local time, my afternoon walks have become the highlight of my day. The photo I captured today shows the classic American residential layout spacious houses, clear blue skies, and those long, asphalt roads that invite you to just keep walking. The weather was absolutely perfect, not too hot, with a light breeze that made the 11k steps feel like a breeze.
What I love about walking here is the sense of scale. Everything is bigger the roads, the yards, and even the distances between shops! This naturally encourages me to walk more. I found myself wandering through different blocks, admiring the blooming trees and the quiet, safe atmosphere of the neighborhood.

I’ve noticed a significant peak in my activity graph between 4:00 PM and 7:00 PM (16:00 - 19:00). That was my power hour where I really pushed the pace to make sure I cleared the 10k mark. I’m also happy to see my AFIT balance steadily climbing. Every step is an investment!
A huge shoutout to the community members like @captainquack22 who have been reaching out in the comments. The social aspect of Actifit and Hive is what keeps me motivated. It’s not just about the numbers it’s about sharing this journey with people from all over the world.
Beating the Jet Lag for Good
I can officially say that the jet lag is losing the battle. By staying active and reaching over 11k steps today, I’ve managed to stay awake until the evening, helping my body fully calibrate to Eastern Standard Time. I’m feeling more energized and less like a travel zombie than I did 48 hours ago.
Tomorrow, I’m planning to perhaps explore a local park or a different part of the town to keep the scenery fresh. Staying consistent is much easier when you have such beautiful surroundings to explore.
