No matter how "fickle" are days this summer (and every previous one) - I have faith in summer.
It often happens that we, employed people, who work from Monday to Friday (and sometimes on Saturdays), while we are at work, look towards the clear sky, sheltered from the sun in the offices. we are looking forward to the weekend, when we can enjoy such beautiful weather.
And it often happens that the weekend days over the summer dawn cloudy, that on Friday night it rains, which cools the night, but also the next morning and which shakes my faith that on that Saturday day I will have the opportunity to enjoy a little on a real summer day, and not just work.
I want to feel the summer vibe in my free time, to be in a place where I can see the sun under an umbrella and not from the office, where I will seek refreshment in cold water and not under the air conditioner, and when I can enjoy summer cocktails without the prohibition of alcohol in the workplace.
And for something like that I need good time...
On Saturday, although we had already arranged to go to the pool, we woke up to a cloudy and quite cold morning.
I went out to the car to put the towels in and looked at the sky.
Although it didn't look like it was time for the pool, because the temperature dropped a lot overnight, there is hope that it will clear up, that there will be no rain, and that the temperature will rise to summer.
Especially because it took us almost an hour to get to the pool.
We arrived at the pool, chose deckchairs, did not spread the umbrellas, because the sun was hidden behind the clouds and for the first two hours, we did not even enter the water, we lay on the deckchairs and read books (I saw interesting posts on Hive).
As noon approached, the temperature began to rise, and the clouds seemed more and more translucent. The sun began to appear in the sky. It was time to open the parasol..
In the next half hour, as if on command, the pool began to fill up with bathers and the day began to resemble a real summer day, the same as it had been all week.
My faith in summer paid off, I could start enjoying it.
I took a bath, walked around the pool complex, chose for a break, since the sun was already strong, a part of the restaurant where you sit with your feet immersed in the refreshing water, swam and sunbathed.
When I was satisfied with the pool, I wanted to continue enjoying it in a restaurant in the neighborhood, so I ended up in the garden of the Avenue restaurant, which looks like a forest.
And where better to spend a summer afternoon than in the shade of various trees, next to a forest stream (it's true, it's an artificial stream, but it contributes a lot to the pleasure 🙂).
I spent the first day of the weekend at the pool and in the garden of the restaurant, and in order to include the whole weekend in #summervibes, I spent the second day, Sunday, in the city center, wandering through the parks and streets, while I took a break at the favorite summer cocktail bar Blaznavac.
As I already mentioned, the drink of choice for summer refreshment was cocktails.
And really, there is no better refreshment on a hot summer day than a good cocktail with lots of ice.
Cheers!
PS. In order to fully experience this summer, like all the others so far, I need to be caught somewhere by a summer shower, which will soak me to the skin and bring instant refreshment.
I hope for such a summer vibe 😀
