snapshots of summer




Life has settled well in to holiday mode. I could get used to this gentle routine.
As per the 'snapshots' above, snapped on my phone, using the barest amount of energy possible, each day revolves around swimming, biking & eating.
(OK - and some wine too!)
One moment there are no less than ten girls giggling on the lawn, and then there are none, as they roam to someone elses bach & another food source. 
Another bike ride. Another trip to the rope swing. Another swim. Another iceblock.
It's exhausting just thinking about it.
It's the same childhood I had here at the same little beach, and how wonderful that absolutely nothing has changed in 40 something years.
Except my girls are now playing with the children of the children I used to play with.
Long, long, long, may it last!

  1. It sounds absolutely RELAXING! Which is exactly how it should be - and the kind of things which your children will fondly remember too.
