From the road, the lake looked pretty enough. So we stopped, hoping to find a nice, shady bench to eat the plums we’d gotten earlier in the day. Found a bench, close to the water, and soon realized why no one was sitting there: the water was disgusting – full of green and brown algae with that lingering stink that crawls up inside your nose for a few hours.
So we took a walk instead, where we saw a long hedge that was completely covered with spiders’ webs. But aat least they didn’t stink, and some of them had water drops caught on them.

What goes on inside my mind on a car trip:
Look! Trees! They are pretty! Tree. Tree. TreeTreeTree. I get it. Trees. Horizon – I need an horizon. Music! I can’t stand John Mayer. What’s with that? Need a different song! When’s lunch? Where’s a rest area? Tree? Tree. Waffles are delicious! Ooh – a tunnel. Tree. Tree. TreeTreeTree.
(Sorry, I didn’t mean to frighten you. But it probably DOES explain a few things, doesn’t it?)
