any given sunday

before the near death experience we did have a wonderful day. it started with anna’s pancakes in the garden and ended with breaking in our amazing new pool. as usual well documented in pictures.

yes i’ve noticed i’ve gotten sort of dark. and all the hours at the gym have given me pretty buff shoulders. throw some oil on me and a few more sessions in the gym and i’ll be ready for competing in bodybuilding! ;)

my intuition just saved totti’s life

after a few hours of sunbathing, we had to break up since a thunderstorm is coming in. typical summer weather. while anna and i were packing up our stuff a friend of a neighbor came, parked her car and went inside. i noticed that totti was sniffing the car but didn’t pay too much attention to that.

shortly after came both our neighbor and her friend out again and went into the car. totti NEVER goes underneath cars, so i don’t know why i then decided to check before they drove off. but there he was. under the car. stuck since the weight of the two women had lowered the car. i got them to get out of the car and pulled out a greasy and bit scared totti.

i can’t believe how close this was to be the worst day of my life. i’m still in chock.

sicily in pictures – part 5

on our way back to naxos giardini from the southwest coast, we stopped shortly in caltagirone to have a look at the famous stairs. I have to admit that the 142 steps were quite the workout!
