a day on the balcony

After stoking up with cheese, tomato, bread, fruit, coffee and wine we feel confident to settle on our balcony with books. No need to go anywhere today.

We have a visitor though. A small greenish bird enters the bathroom window. I let him/her out but we keep finding bird shit in weird places the whole day.

Sun and shade, mild breeze, white-blue architecture in the background, dancing yachts on the bay. Reading, discussing world problems and a walk to the local beach. Melancholy emptiness in the beach cafes. The cats in the evening restaurant try to chew the legs off from our chairs.
