Since our cars were dirty, we popped down to the wash-yourself car wash service to clean them. It took us almost an hour to get it done, and the additional shopping in the nearby store made it two. No wonder we were terribly peckish upon returning home. I didn't hesitate for a moment and jumped into the kitchen to prepare the nosh - fish fingers with rice and salad. We devoured the food on the balcony, which is on the western side of the house, so it was in the shadow, so eating there was divine. The area was calm, hardly any cars passed by, and the summer vacation was palpable because there was less traffic on the roads and fewer people in the shops.
The sudden heat that broke into the country took its toll, all of us felt weary. Even Abby was so slow, like a sloth. She moved like a snail during her afternoon walk, and taking her onto the "hill" couldn't make her move faster and more. When I came up with the idea of walking, Ági looked at me with anger, surprise, and anguish. I knew what she meant; nevertheless, we'd decided to walk every day, so there was no excuse for us not to go out. None of us enjoyed it, if I'm being totally honest. And although it might have been one of our most remarkable walks, it wasn't for the enjoyment.
