Just one last short update before we leave for Romania tomorrow morning. We had a lovely time at the lake with Belinda and Enrico. Here are some pictures:
Wherever we go we always take exactly the same picture
Beautiful skies over the lake...
And at night, we could see so many stars... It was a gorgeous old house, a beautiful lake and very good company. Friday night, we went to a local festival where the world-famous Valentina band were showing off and rocking the house down. The old folks living in the village decided that it was their turn to shine as well and treated us to some very interesting line dancing. Valentina was quite versatile but it didn't really matter what they played, rock, Italian pop songs, ballroom music, the old people just wouldn't stop line dancing! Olaf and Belinda joined them at some point and were obviously the stars of the evening...
We didn't have any plans for yesterday evening, but then Meghan facebooked that her new Dutch beau was in town and we just had to go out. So we went to La Padellaccia, stuffed up on pizza and subjected the poor lad to a questioning the Spanish Inquisition would have been envious of. Luckily, we approved of him so after finishing copious amounts of La Padellaccia's tasty house wine we decided to go dancing at the Johann Sebastian Bar. We hadn't been there for quite a while but Barbie still knew who Olaf was and we had a great time. Afterwards, we went back to our place to consume some more alcohol until we called the kids a taxi around 5 am. It was a lovely evening.
Naturally, we slept late this morning and have been spending most of today cleaning and preparing for our trip. Gotta go, gotta pack. I wish you all some very lovely weeks and hope you won't miss me too much. I'll be in Holland from 4th until 10th September, hope to see all you Dutchies then. But first things first, it's holiday time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
XXX, Fe
