today is monday

the day before yesterday was saturday
i hitched to lac du Salagou with Triin, Hrönn, Magdaleny, Alice, Jesus and Elizabeth for Triins birthday, about an hour from Montpellier. Jesus was my hitching partner, we got as far as the lake but had to walk the last bit to the village where we met the others.
it was SO sunny and beautiful, spring colours, green grass, blue water and red red rocks.
we found a spot on a sort of "presque île" where we picnic-ed, the northerners swam and the southerners laughed.
later on Tiana joined us with some other couchsurfers and we did a tour of the promontory with a stop for rugged-terrain volley/football as the sun started to set.
Triin, Jesus and Hrönn stayed to camp by the water but the rest of us were obliged to migrate back to town. Olivier gave me a lift, with a pause for an omelette and (half) a glass of wine en route.

hier c'était dimanche.
un ami de l'église, Cleve, s'a fait baptisé le matin, c'était chouette.
je suis rentrée à pied parce qu'il faisait tellement beau, je suis passée par le jardin des plantes mais les arbres avaient l'air triste et il y avait trop des couples donc j'ai continué.
à rue de la loge il y avait trois enfants qui dansaient devant un musicien qui jouait un instrument bizarre et qui chantait pour sa femme en Amérique du sud.
plus tard Triin est rentrée très bronzée et même plus fatiguée.
j'ai bu un café avec Julia en ville, puis j'ai fait une tarte aux poires et on est allée manger les quiches et les tartes avec les assassins de montpellier.

aujourd'hui c'est lundi.
it is a day of lists :(
now i'm going to Lidl.
over.
