Today we woke up to a beautiful spring morning. The sky was all clear, wind was very moderate; about 6-7 m/s. The sea looked beautiful, shining in the sun.
The group of seals had landed in the eastern corner on our island. And the swallows appeared and flew around the lighthouse all morning. Wind is from south-west, so the north shore offered us a sheltered shore for bathing (the seawater is icecold).
We enjoyed breakfast outdoors on the rocks and in the sheltered place it is allmost warm: you can take of the woolcap. We started two projects. We set up the biotoilett in the woodshelter. It needs to be set up in a higher place in order to work properly. But that will be a good project for a handy carpenter.
Then we decided a place for the waterstove. It shall be outdoors as long as the autumn storms come.
Then we started the kitchen project. First thing was to put rubbercloves on. The ancient painting of the ceiling keeps falling of in pieces and creates junk all over the place. There is a massive amount of dirt and junk; rusted peasoupcans, empty boozebattles and rotten macarones for example. We save everything for the museum intendent, but use some detergent and female touch.
Next project is the cleaning of the stairs of the lighthouse. The place is covered with the plaster that fall of the walls.
The Lighthouse society had brought a lot of good food for us and today we had vegetable soup for lunch. For the dinner we attend to grill some beef.
All together lighthouse has started to feel very nice and cosy, we feel like home allready. Around three o'clock wind died totally and in the south came black stormclowes, by 4.30 they reached ua and gave us little water and brought us some wind and cool air. They seem to be local clowes. So, woolcaps back on!
