Tuscany 2012 - Day 2

Wednesday, 20.6.2012

7:00 Lisa is already getting dressed, I feel like a boxer 30 seconds after the KO. Ella is already up, I wobble out onto the terrace and the two children are already exploring.

The attempt to cool down the heated apartment fails miserably. Outside on the terrace, the usual picture: the marble table is covered in cum and the wine stoppers are lying around.

As in previous years, a similar picture: I'm sitting on the terrace, writing this daily report, trying to get back into life, and every 10 minutes the quacking... no, not ducks, but children come by. Actually, only Lisa is quacking and Ella has to join in.

Today it's the 1st program's turn: to the pool !

A small breakfast of prosciutto con melon and an espresso doppio, while the children are always out and about on the premises. Watching lizards, threatening the rooster and acting out the House of Anubis story. Christian is the secret magician, Bettina is the mysterious woman and I am Mr. Müller.

Everyone jumps into the pool: 26°C - wonderful (except Bettina, who looks after the house). Swimming - diving - jumping: a "cannonball festival" like no other, the children even jump in pairs. In between, Lisa does the task, there is an afternoon snack (mozzarella e pomodoro and the rest of the bolognese) and then it's back to the pool. I keep dozing off there. Dolce vita. It's beautiful here, time and time again.

In the evening we take a quick trip to the COOP and Christian makes an excellent meal: roast shoulder with tomatoes and zucchini vegetables.

I voluntarily put Lisa to bed, but she falls asleep while standing. All the women are tired and go to sleep, the men stay seated: fireflies, lots of stars, 2 satellites and night panorama photos with 30 sec. exposure time.

ISS:

22:49:55 Start 10° NW

22:53:08 High 78° NNE

22:56:21 End 10° ESE

380 km altitude

28,000km/h

It's pleasantly warm on the terrace, but it's terribly hot in the house. That's why Lisa wakes up at half past twelve, crying and wanting to go home.
