dolce far niente






Sweet idleness is a national sport these days. During the weekend folks go to one of the city's many public parks, bring a picnic or just lie on the grass, enjoying the warm sunshine and perfumy spring air.
We like to do the same.

    I'd love to do the same. There aren't many parks here so we head to the countryside instead.

    We had a fine day yesterday with 15C. I told the people at my favorite cafe that I wanted to enjoy my coffee outside, so they brought out a table and a couple of chairs. Today we had a grey sky and 5C.

    My40 year old son was doing this in the park when we visited him 2 weeks ago. Love the shot. If I got down like that, I would never be able to get back up. Oh, to be young again!

    That's what I'd need... lying down on the grass, under the sun...
