A day of enlightenment



The guardian of the Caravanlutian Church is taking an interest in us – she keeps the wind at bay and confines the rain to our sleeping moments – she even allows us to sleep through the constant chatter of her devotee that resides in the adjacent lot of this delightful caravanesi – if I was to believe just half of the facts that he expounded then I would be a universal expert on all matters that may be of interest to mankind – the tolerance of his partner is a source of amazement to me!


The sun rises early and gently warms the area – so gently that she avoids agitating the winds so that the river is calm and the environment of the river a delight to all mankind.


A chair is moved to the riverside - the birds are watched – the fisherpeople are watched – the ferry is watched – the flowers on the river bank are watched – the head goes back – the sun warms the back – time passes in an instant.









Stroll 50 metres down to the café for coffee – stroll back home – sit on the chair again – relax – read - do nothing – relax – enjoy – enjoy. 


Stroll to the café again – lunch – stroll back – relax – read – listen to PG Wodehouse – do nothing – listen some more – relax – enjoy – enjoy.




So this is what it is all about! – perhaps a day of enlightenment! – didn’t miss the Hilton a bit!

    1. Andrew - please be assured that if you are so inclined you are absolutely welcome to take the van and experience all of the privations that Bernie and I experienced on this aquatic adventure!
