Thunderstorm

To be a meteorologist must be the best profession in the world. Always wrong, and still paid. I have looked at the weather forecast now for the past two weeks, and they have always warned you "a thunderstorm is coming". We're still waiting. Only today, when out with the boat, it was kinda a feeling of yes, it's coming. Soon.

So we only stayed on the lake for a couple of hours. It was only us, a few sail boats and the ferries of course. Plus the swimmers. I tell you. This is so dangerous. People swim across the lake, and when there are waves it is difficult to see the heads of the swimming people. I don't know why they don't understand it. There are so many vehicles on the lake. Pedalling boats, sailing boats, motor boats, ferries, canoes, gondolas and the odd bicycle-boat (yes I know, but it really is...a bicycle on top of a boating kinda device).

Anyway, yesterday there was a bit of a party. And I got a little bit tipsy. A lot actually. Hasn't happened in a while. So didn't feel exactly fantastic waking up this morning (but I've learned not to look in the mirror - ah, the horror!). But once out on the lake, all worries and the rest of the problems in the world just disappear. It's a stillness and a calmness out there, that is good for the mind. Not to mention it's fun :)
