There are two reasons why we are where we are today: the forecasted rain and Tim’s heel which started to show bruising and discolouration. So today we hide from the torrential rain, read, watch and play, but most of all relish the roof and fire place which keeps us dry and warm.
Olga and kids starts the day with a hike through the forest and hills while the rain is no more than a drizzle still. They spot four frogs, three rabbits and some birds. Zeno delays the pace enourmously as he wants to study all the animals and plants that facinates the biologist in the making.
The hike ends exciting, as there is a big river blocking the path.
Going the 3KM back on the hill is no option. What to do? Luckily, Cleo spots a small path leading to a bridge 200 meters back.
Meanwhile Tim lies on the couch, reads a book and plans the coming days.
More and more water continues to fall, between the showers the kids and Olga play outside, hide and seek, and we do the laundry. It’s still super quiet in our park, it nearly feels inappropriate to play outside and make some noise.
The sun sets early as the clouds envelop us and the hills.
