Thunderstorms overnight and the weather is a lot different today, no bad thing as none of us are sun worshippers. I could cheerfully spend the day sleeping I just haven't had enough kip these last couple of weeks. Hopefully a gentle day today? My girly is keen to have a crepe but I'm not sure if we will go into France today. We are right on the French/Belgian border, as you can possibly see in this pic.
This is the view from our window and you might make out the now deserted border crossing.
I often find holidays challenging. I tend to be only happy when everyone is happy, which can be impossible when there are several people with differing needs and desires, various expectations in terms of levels of activity etc. My girly wanted to eat waffles and crepe so she is happy.
Tomorrow we are taking a break from war and will hopefully hire bikes. For now it is reading beside the pool for me. I have brought with me a Charlotte Bingham novel given to me as a present several Christmases ago if I recall correctly. I deliberately didn't bring the book I really really want to read, cos I knew I would get sucked into the story and not want to socialize with people. That I will read when I get home and the kids go away. I will definitely have to do a few lengths again today if I am to begin to counter the impact of the chocolate etc I'm consuming....
