Longer days

One of the distinct disadvantages of living “up North” (Luebeck lies more or less on the same latitude as the south part of Hudson Bay) is the long winter nights.

Yet, undoubtedly, one of the joys is the coming of the long summer days. Already, we have light from five in the morning until nine in the evening. In another two months, we will have nearly nineteen hours of light. Wonderful.

It is time for me to go off walking along the canal with a good friend of mine, Christine. We usually “go walking” (and not “go for a walk”) a few times a week. Giui calls these sessions Walkie Talkies. My husband is a very astute observer.
