âĻ in Karlshagen.
I made a good choice. My tent is right by the water, just behind the dune. In the evening, I can hear the sea roaring and crashing. It seems to always be in motion, never resting. I, on the other hand, am gently rocked to sleep. Simply heavenly.
Sometimes you just have to allow happiness and let go of not-so-pleasant things. đ
Today is my birthday đđ, and I feel as excited as a little child. đ
I wake up against my nature at 8:00 AM, imagine having breakfast on the beach, and put this into action. Today I even allow myself some rolls and therefore head to the baker. There, I meet a nice man who has set up his caravan just a few meters from me and has been vacationing here with his dog âEmmaâ for 15 years. He is very nice. I won't say more at this point.
The baker in Karlshagen still bakes by hand. The cakes, the pastries, the rolls, everything is very tempting. Today, I only get two rolls, a waffle (a tip from the seller and really delicious), and, of course, the most important item, my newspaper. Oh, how boring can one actually be? đ°đī¸
Iâm allowed to â Iâm turning 57 after all. Oh God, that sounds old. No matter, youâre as old as you feel. WaitâĻ it continues, and a woman is as she feels. đ
So, Iâve had breakfast. It was simply magical and special.
And I really missed nothing. I had a long phone call with my sister, as she actually wanted to come today, but she is sick. Well, for next year, I should go ahead and book.
After breakfast, I must have dozed off, which can happen on vacation, I set off to stroll to Zinnowitz. For a soft ice cream. The 7 km are worth it to me. My walk along the beach takes 1.5 hours. On the way back, I choose the forest path, hoping to find blueberries like in childhood days. And indeed. There are plenty of them, I don't have to put in much effort, and in no time I've filled my empty water bottle. My breakfast for tomorrow will be enriched with blueberries.
For dinner tonight, Iâll get a delicious salad, unusually from the discount store and not from my own garden, and cook spaghetti. Iâm really craving that.
I feel a bit like Robinson Crusoe. Even a bottle of sparkling wine has washed ashore today.
And thatâs why Iâm going to stay up really late tonight.
After all, itâs my birthday. đ
