After The trip

I am exhausted after yesterday trip to Olecko. I need rest at least 3 days I think :)
And take better care of my animals. Today I found out, that 5 goats got scrambled together. I had to help them to release. Now they are okay. The stallion got his new spot as well. He is fine after the grovermina, so now I can give it to mares aa well without fear.

The strawberry ride

We went to Olecko by bikes. Our aim was to make some essential shopping and hang up around Olecko. It was peculiar trip ;) When we were passing by a field with strawberries, we sensed the sweet, intense, nice strawberry scent and I decided to buy some strawberries for us.
I went to the owner of the strawberry field and asked to sell me 1kg strawberries. Instead, he gave me 3kg. He said it was 3kg. But he didn't have with him the scales, so he just poured the strawberries from a box. It felt like 5kg while I was carrying them in my rucksack.




We went to visit 7 shops while I was trying to find the things we needed.
Mick was grumbling that he would take a book with him if he knew how much time the shopping would last :) It was he, who was usually left with our bikes and the shopping outside, while I was penetrating shops in search of needed things :)




When we got hungry and were after basic shopping which needed to be done before 4 or 5 p.m. since most shops are closed at that time - we went to eat our dinner.




After eating we continued the shopping. We went to petrol station to buy some petrol for my chainsaw. By the way Mick pumped the bikes's wheels using the equipment located at the petrol station.




Then, on our way home, I have decided to do the final shopping. I meant to buy some food mainly, but in the  supermarket they had some nice goods in the friendly prices to which I really coudn't resist, so I bought them. It was a toaster, a ventilator, some colourful plates perfect for pancakes and beautiful and healthy snake plant about which I dreamed before. Apart from that I also bought some food as well. When Mick saw the the amount of shopping I have done he was really shocked, because we really didn't have much place on our bikes and in our rucksacks.




When he saw the snake plant - he burst out of hysterical laughter. But I am a perfectionist in packing, so we managed to locate everything in safe and comfortable way, including the snake plant :)))




The way home was okay, but the backpacks were bloody heavy. We had to do some stops on the way home to rest from the weight and to drink some water or eat some strawberries.
