Slow day and pancakes

søndag 21. juni 2026
af Alix Bortolussi

This morning started slow with all of us sleeping in, and with some freshly made pancakes from János for breakfast. 

Julian had been out night catching quails (Vagtel) tonight and enjoyed some extra sleep after coming home after the sunrise which he enjoyed at the top of the lighthouse. Unfortunately, no quails were caught, and he only heard two as well as tried to approach one of them but it sort of disappeared and went silent. 

During the day we all did some cleaning around the house as is our weekly schedule, and in the afternoon we all went to enjoy some fresh water and sun at the beach! Everyone was brave enough to get into the cold water but me ahahaha I admire them! I am too used to the warm Mediterranean Sea for the nordic temperatures, but I am trying to get better at that! 

Our guests Anne and Jesper who had been staying in the apartment for a while sadly left us today, and we hope to see them again soon. It was a pleasure having them around!

In the evening, we made a nice fire outside the lighthouse and enjoyed some Midsommar treats with some watermelon and fire roasted marshmallows.
