Today has been both tiring and wonderful, and completely fulfilling; you could say that almost every moment was spent doing something enjoyable and useful.
Even though I'm now exhausted and my head hurts from both the sun and the heat, as well as from tiredness and lack of sleep.
In any case, when I got home at 6:20 AM, my wife and children were waiting, as we had agreed the day before to go for an early swim while the beach was still quiet, up until 10 AM.
That's also when the sea is the cleanest and calmest, perfect for a swim, followed by sitting in a chair and pouring a cup of coffee from a thermos to enjoy the lovely sea air.
We went to a semi-sandy beach called Srima, which is 3 kilometers from my house.
We like going there because there's sand in the water where we can play a game called "picigin" with a small ball.
It's a game played by locals, especially the young, and in some places, there are even competitions with symbolic prizes ranging from a lamb to a crate of beer.
After a nice swim and drying off, we headed home before the crowds arrived and before the strong sun, as I have quite a few moles and prefer to avoid it.
When we got home, my wife made lunch, and afterwards, I went fishing with the kids to a nearby fishing village called Tribunj. We caught quite a bit, and tomorrow when my godparents visit, we'll have a barbecue because my godfather loves fish, as do we, and it's also very healthy due to the omega fatty acids, calcium, iodine, etc.
When we returned from fishing, we took a shower because we smelled quite a bit like fish, especially the bait we used.
I use salted shrimp, which needs to stay in a jar with salt for a few days to draw out the moisture, making them tougher and less likely to fall off the hook.
After showering, we went to a restaurant called Šimun, which is 200 meters from my house, for a meat platter because we needed to treat ourselves and make the most of the day with the family.
It's best when we're all together.
After a lovely and delicious dinner, we went home; my wife and children went to bed, and I, of course, went to my night shift.
After such a beautiful day, it's not hard at all to work it, and I do it very relaxed and cheerfully.
I wish you a pleasant and good night, dear friends.
