As soon as you get up, sweat is pouring out of every pore. The heat is not normal. It does cool down a bit at night, but the whole apartment - despite the thick walls - is so hot that sleeping does not bring any noticeable rest.
The program for this one week's vacation was decided unanimously and will be consistently followed. During the day, pool, snack, pool and doing something in the late afternoon. In the evening, cooking or going out to eat.
Today we have pool with pool golf and red shoulders and then an exceptionally good snack. We eat mozzarella, peppers, tomatoes, olives, parmesan, ham and Chianti, deliciously prepared by Illungo.
Off to Poggibonsi - we're going shopping today! 2 pairs of shorts, a much-needed cap to protect my head from heatstroke, and brilliant black slippers. Quickly buy some groceries before 9 and then home for an excellent dinner: Tacchino with rosemary and garlic and Chianti juice and salad and bread.
Bettina and Christian are being tormented by the insects. So we retreat into the house and, despite the two of them playing well, I win at dice poker. Bedtime at half past one.
