Sun no more

October 7th, 2011 No comments

after a few days of sunshine, warmth, and enjoying picnics in the park and dinners outside.. the cold is back. i’m thinking it’s here to stay this time as well. no more shorts or summer clothes, back to reality.

Goodbyes

August 30th, 2011 No comments

the last night before we left Corfu, we had out favourite table booked for dinner. i of course had a greek salad and we all enjoyed the wine and the view for the last night there.

we had to leave the villa on the last day in the morning, so we spent the day soaking up the last bits of the sun and enjoying big cold beers ;)

one thing i DO NOT miss from Greece are all the damn wasps! they attacked whenever you had a drink, or food, or even just existed near them. the incense helped to keep them away for a bit, but when it burnt out they came back immediately!

a truly relaxing trip with some great weather, it’s a shame my tan is already starting to disappear!

Wine & Dine

After long and hard days of laying out and soaking up the sun by the pool ;) our favourite past time was going out for some Greek food. Don’t forget the two litres of wine we normally had as well… (pictures from our favourite restaurant by Nissaki beach)

The other night..?

everything seems to just mush into one day when you’re not doing anything of importance. either way on tuesday i believe it was, emmelie robert and i went down to the water and grilled some tofu hot dogs and shrimp. was nice to drink some rose in the sun and enjoy the company.

then last night robert’s parents came over with his little brother, david. david’s good friends with my ex. was nice to catch up a bit. another good meal with wine. its the summertime so wine not?

Chilled, yet absurdly warm.

went down to the water yet again, laid in the sun for about two hours. then once i felt fully crispy made my way back up to the flat to have lunch. i ended up on the couch sleeping instead of watching how i met your mother. oops.

 

Burnt bacon

today i walked down to the water by the military academy here and laid out in the sun and enjoyed my book.

finished the book within three hours, and then after i finished my water and apple i figured i’d head back home for some lunch.

good thing because the entire backside of my body hasn’t seen any sun since mexico, and i look like burnt bacon. my ‘tan’ lines (or burn lines) are ridiculously distinguished!

Finsbury park

June 5th, 2011 No comments

this week i betrayed my beloved Regent’s park and headed to Finsbury park instead. Hadn’t been there in two years, in fact the first and only time i’d ever been before was with my father when i first moved to London.

After first getting lost, i then located danielle. irish and grace joined as well after a while. then whilst sitting in the sun for about 20 minutes and watching danielle and irish play frisbee, everyone decided we were restless.

so we rented out a paddle boat! captain irish did okay, danielle.. is well not a captain at all, and grace was a natural. i of course was lazy and decided to not move a muscle.

Park it

Sat in the park enjoying the sun and just thinking on my own. Relaxing to say the least.

Think I’m sat on a bench somewhere above the tube, every couple of minutes or so the ground feels like it’s vibrating… Stable?

Happy times
