the last long weekend of this summer ☀️

9/4 Edited to

... Read moreAs summer comes to a close, the last long weekend offers a perfect opportunity to unwind and savor the season’s final warm days. From my own experience, planning a mix of outdoor activities and moments of relaxation can truly enhance this special time. One of my favorite ways to enjoy these sunny days is by organizing a picnic at a local park or beach. Packing a basket with fresh fruits, sandwiches, and refreshing drinks adds a delightful touch. Bringing along a blanket and some music creates a cozy atmosphere for friends or family gatherings. Besides picnics, short hikes or bike rides allow you to connect with nature and enjoy the pleasant weather. I recommend choosing scenic routes that offer beautiful views, making the effort well worth it. Don’t forget to wear comfortable shoes and pack sunscreen! For those who prefer a more relaxed approach, spending time reading a good book on a porch or balcony can be incredibly refreshing. Sipping iced tea and watching the sunset provides a perfect way to reflect and recharge. Lastly, capturing these moments with photographs helps preserve memories of the last long weekend of summer. Whether it’s candid shots of loved ones or scenic landscapes, these images bring joy long after the season fades. Approaching this weekend with intention and appreciation allows you to wrap up summer on a high note. Making space for both activities and downtime ensures a balanced, fulfilling experience that resonates well into the upcoming seasons.

Weekends should always be for time in the saddle. I really have missed this part of my life and never realized how big of a hole was missing from my heart. Horses have been such a big part of my life for so long and I’m so happy it’s back. #summerdiary #lemon8contest

The last big weekend of the summer!
The train to Monza and the stations on F1 race day are mobbed but I still got a quick shot I was chuffed with at Milan Central station. What a place! There’s an easy shuttle bus straight here from Milan Linate airport. I need a weekend here that isn’t all about Monza!
