Summer is back with temperatures around 30 degrees during the days and remaining above 20 degrees also during the night and thus we have the perfect settings for long evenings on the roof terrace enjoying a barbeque. The fact, that each day at least a short, but potentially heavy rainfall provides some humidity and water for the plants could not spoil the outdoor plans and so we have had 3 nights of delicious BBQ since Thursday.
Thursday night Viki and Stefan stopped by before leaving for their holiday in Spain on Friday morning and we had a nice farewell dinner. Stefan made it very clear that he would prefer our little one to arrive only after their return at the end of this week. Flo, who arrived in Vienna Wednesday night for his brother’s scholastic ceremony, was of a completely opposite opinion: he was hoping for delivery this weekend. As there were no signs at all we decided to invite Flo, his brother Philip and girlfriend Cherry as well as Flo’s mom Christine and partner Norbert for BBQ with spare ribs, Berner sausages, pork chops and turkeybreast on Saturday night. We expected the need of a lot of meat for the 7 of us and were pretty much surprised when after two courses everyone was done. We suspect that the amounts of beer that were consumed - and that took us by surprise as well – could be one reason for the low food consumption. Luckily we could use some more meat on Sunday night when we expected our neighbours Andrea and Stefan, but we definitely failed to eat up all we bought and so the freezer is full now as well.
Given the fact that most of the recent nights were quite short and Markus’s running programme foresaw a 2 hour sting of running on Sunday afternoon Monday is a slow and tired day and will see us early in bed. Lets see how long we can rest before the big day and when Flo has to return to Vienna together with Sandra, Heidi and Eugen.
