Friday, June 19

We went to the midsummer market this morning. It seemed very quiet. Benita’s café, on the other hand, had a full house that overflowed onto the road. We looked to see who we knew, and then abandoned any thoughts of waiting in line for a morning beer.

I said hello to Janne, and to Hannah, and to some people I didn’t recognise who said hello to me.

The weather has turned even hotter. I wander around the garden looking for something to photograph. I find the lantern. The light has become so bright that the iPad finds it difficult to focus properly.
