on the boat

i was starting to feel the strain of a not-so-good week yesterday. luckily, it was a gorgeous sunny day, so i went for a short walk along the lake. and saw the mini ferry-boats that cross it. and took the first one for a short but nice and relaxing ride. there is something incredibly soothing about being on a boat, especially when you're sitting barely 30cm above the water. the perspective on the town is amazing, it looks so different. and yesterday, i was the only one on the boat, apart from the 'captain', which made it even better. next time i'll choose the boat that goes the furthest, though - that way i can spend more time on it!
