A day on The Pacific.
Sailing with Cecilia, Steve and Steve´s mother Lynn.
Little me on the huge ocean.
Sailing in happiness.
Lead by captain Marta.
or by captain Steve.
Everything so serene, so peaceful.
Nothing could go wrong.
:::::::::::::
Then, all of a sudden......
Pillow over board.
Drama
"We have to save this pillow"
"Stop the boat"
"Steve, listen. STOP THE BOAT"
"Where is the pillow now?"
"Who is keeping an eye on it?"
"Where is it?"
"WHERE IS IT?"
Cecilia climbes down, almost into the water, Steve holds the boat in position, Terje holds Cecilia, mother Lynn helps with a hook, Marfta watches and I am the war reporter.
And all of a sudden the pillow is resqued.
We won the war.
:::::::::::::::::::::::
The King of Norway, King Harald, is a member of Cecilia and Steve´s Yacht Club.
Back at the club, hanging around, having dinner,I look for The King. He is nowhere to be seen of course, and then I remember.....
......as our day is heading towards afternoon, a very special day is starting in Norway.
July 22nd.
One year since the terrorism in Oslo and at Utøya.
Of course King Harald and Queen Sonja are in Norway,
for the memorial.
