I took these pictures in one of the warm summer afternoons at the island.

I have just completed dipping within the pool and laying down on the sunbed to dry. The Dutchman lays beside me, very plenty engrossed with his new book referred to as Judas, a real-life story of a excessive profile crook inside the Netherlands as instructed by way of his sister (whom he threatened to kill...). From time to time, the Dutchman dips within the pool too, to freshen up and take a breather from reading.

Both people take benefit of the summer season vacations to study. I typically read at the least 2 books on the two-week excursion while Dutchman has a huge stash loaded in his e-reader. I might just purchase an e-reader when I get used to the idea. For now, I love the texture of the ebook in my palms.
