What does a person do on returning from the perfect holiday? If you can´t look out at the garden that ends in the sea, or watch the birds as you eat your just-picked wild raspberries?
The best trick is to go straight to normal life, and do things you couldn´t do during the perfect holiday.
With that healthy idea in mind, I´ve gone straight to the market and bought peaches, little sweet green plums, and half a melon. Doesn´t quite make up for paradise lost, but does make one happy about being so far south.
And I was very good, and didn´t burst into tears when I say the little punnet of overpriced, tasteless raspberries.
Still and all, glad to be back. This is just to promise watercolour sketches of Estonia, and details about berries, mushrooms, moose, and more.

It's hard not to cry over those sad berries when you've had the real thing close at hand (I wrote about fresh raspberries today as well--sigh). Welcome back anyway--I'm looking forward to your stories and images!

A ver si viendo tus dibujos se me pasa un poco el disgusto de mis "vacaciones". Ejem.
I can only imagine paradise being like this. I am so happy that you had such a wonderful time with Pille and in Estonia.
