BREAKING NEWS:
The city and the beach at Blokhus, Denmark at 1:30 PM with sun from a blue sky, winds from the West, like the waves of the sea perhaps all the way from America. New temperature record of the year 2008. Incredibly unbelieable
70 degrees fahrenheit, and here it comes - In the shadow, Wow. :grin:
I also had my first bath at the sea Vesterhavet today only wearing the transparent clothes God taylored for me. No problem for a Viking of course :grin:.
Women are strange
. We met some friends of this furie of mine from Gønhøj, where she has her house and workshop, while walking on the beach looking for amber. One of the men asked, if we should all have a swim?
As politely as possible, I told him: Please, if you must. Can you swim? (I had no intensions of acting life-guard). With the wind and the waves and the typical undertoa not excactly friendly for a guy using a cain.
What do you think this furie of mine did? She changed sides and supported his suggestion for me: Come on intet, she said, you can do it, you´re my man, you´re a good swimmer - bla, bla, bla - You know how middle aged women, suddenly think their man is Indiana Jones, how they can dream?
When first out some 50 feet it was quite refressing to say the least, I have always enjoyed swimming as exercise and have kept doing it also while abroad. A very good rutine to begin the day, and it is a tradition for the tough folks and other Vikings living here to have a bath in the sea, first time we´re here.
Great, and then we went to Blokhus City an had a great late lunch, of course having fish, small boiled potatoes with new parsley, a strange mustard alike souce and a glass of cold white wine sitting with our faces turned towards the sea.
At that time I had forgiven her.
