recovery today

 Wake early after a night of poor sleep. Walking forty kilometres yesterday was tiring, and hard on the ankles. That must be the reason that all long distance hikers wear hiking boots and not walking shoes. Still, walking shoes are pleasant and easy, hiking boots are practically sports equipment. Wake up and have breakfast and pack the package with the camera that found its buyer yesterday.

Clean up the kitchen a bit, whilst waiting for the postman to arrive. When he does, there is the parcel with that new camera, the one to replace the one that landed in the package to be sold. Then go to the post office to post the sold camera to Bremen. It is a good exchange, the new camera is quite a lot better than the old one.

Spend a short while in the café, time for one of their coffees. Watch as one of the staff slowly and thoroughly polishes the glass doors of the refrigerated showcase for the cakes.

Yesterday was the day of the long walk, today is the day of recovery. Take pictures of yet another camera that is to be sold, make sure that there are no visible finger prints on the glass. It is icy in the room in which the pictures are taken, it has not had heating installed yet. Send the pictures to the customer by mail, let us see how he decides. To buy or not to buy, and so forth
