Finally

Vacation this year seemed very very far off but finally the day arrived and we could head down to our paradise. It rained a bit in town as we packed the car but stopped almost right away.

Hardly no traffic and the drive went quite smoothly. A quite long swim in the ocean and then coffee outside with strawberries and a chocolate cake my mother had baked. Life is good!

We defied the weather Gods and bbq the dinner tonight. My sister said it would rain if we took our the barbecue but so far so good. It is still almost 30C and 8.30 PM. I hope we can sleep tonight – and especially my boys who are used to air-conditioning in their rooms. No such luxury here, I’m afraid.
