On vacation with the whole family in the south. And today we went to the swimming pool together with the in laws and their kids. The kids had a really good time and we where able to relax a bit.

The sun was really strong. And even if I used sunscreen with a 50x factor I still burned my arms and back a bit. Good thing we used it multiple times on the kids. They where a lot in the water and in the sun but they seem to have made it without any major burns.

The little one struggles a bit in the warmth. We are trying different approaches to keep her cool. Water on the head from a water bottle or laying on a wet towel seems to help a lot.

In the evening we had a BBQ with other of the family of my spouse. We had a great time and the kids likewise. We could actually sit down and talk a bit without being to much disturbed. The major issue now is the lack of language skills. Good thing I have picked up a couple of words so that I at least can understand the context. Impossible to understand and follow a discussion still. I don't really have time to practice the language either.

If I get some time over in the future I will try to learn it. Would be so good to actually take part in the discussions at the family dinners.

I am knackered so time to sleep!

Lights out!
