And time got a bit away from me so this will be just a short post.
Weirdly enough I slept through my alarm and got – eight hours of sleep.
Did all the morning things (apart from writing) and was very determined to do everything very efficiently so that we could leave the house at 11.
We did not leave the house at 11.
I did force myself to open the manuscript after breakfast and then didn’t want to stop writing. I had such a cool idea!
And then my husband and I took our bikes and rode them all the way to Wörthsee. It took us roughly 75 minutes to get there. We were both very happy that the biking itself felt easier than we remembered. Since we haven’t biked much lately that must be a result of generally better cardio fitness, exercise works.
It was very, very hot. But quite a bit of the way went through the woods which was much cooler and nicer.
We decided to eat lunch first:
Husband always takes the pork roast (which was excellent) but I decided to try the Kasspatzn. I stuck to alcohol-free beer, I didn’t want to drink alcohol in the heat while thirsty.
Afterwards we got ourselves some ice cream on our way to the beach where we wanted to go swimming. Note to self: next time we should totally get the ice cream at the kiosk near the other part of the beach because that one is much better.
This is the spot where we sat on the jetty:
It looks more idyllic than it actually was because I tried to get as few people in the picture as possible. You have to imagine many, many people on all sides of this, their towels on the grass so close to one another that there was just enough space to walk between them.
And then it was time for swimming and we walked a few minutes along the lake to spread our towels in the grass as well, change into bathing suits and go into the water.
Speaking of bathing suits, my husband had actually forgotten his. He had done preparations in two stages, I had fetched the bike pannier from the shed and that threw him off. He ended up taking three shirts and no bathing shorts. So he went swimming in his regular shorts and it was warm enough that biking back in wet shorts was not a problem.
I had originally thought that getting back home in time for my weekly writer Zoom would not be a problem.
I mean, I did make it and I also had enough time to take a shower beforehand, but just barely.
Writer Zoom was very nice and we actually talked about writing. I also had a lot to tell about last week where I was away and this week with the lake adventure.
Then I ate dinner, I played too much Genshin, decided to skip my second writing session of the day, and decided with the boy to go out together for lunch today.
