It is the longest day of the year and you think that the sun has a lot of time to warm up this place here, but it’s the opposite: the sun doesn’t care much; it is checking in very rarely to see if we’re still there, but that’s pretty much it. It is cold. 6 degrees Celsius with stiff winds

The good thing about it: Nothing, really

On the chippy side: Bill and Yuki arrived yesterday and we had a great time catching up / getting to know each other. Bill & Ted were best friends from elementary school onwards, that provided lots of stories of broken bones and young guys hormone driven adventures. Lots of reminiscence and laughter! We had dinner at a Vietnamese noodle house and tasty cocktails at a bar: the winner was a cinnamon & orange gin & tonic! Tasted like Christmas – very appropriate for this kind of weather!

Bill and Yuki will join us at our next adventure: a cruise around Iceland, over to Norway, down to Scotland and England, ending in Southampton / London. I’m looking forward spending time with both of them!
