Hi Ollie,

How was the Perseids? How many meteors did you see this time?

Thanks a lot for arranging to pick me up! Finally, it’ll just be me so I would just need a single room. Sorry about that. I’ll be coming from Barcelona and my train should arrive at 4:47pm. I’ll be the tall brown girl with the ukelele. You can’t miss me! I can’t wait to finally meet you and visit your magical place!

Best,
Ida

P.S. The photos you’ve sent are wonderful! I wish I had the opportunity to take them myself. If you don’t mind, I’m going to print some of them and post it on my wall…

Hey Ida,

It’s always great, but this year the full moon was in the way, so we saw less meteorites than normal. When you get here in October, it’ll be the perfect time for the Orionids, just after the new moon.

Of course I’ll pick you up. It’s my pleasure. Anyway, you wouldn’t know how to get here. It’s my secret place. Happy you like the photos. Don’t worry, I’ll print them for you and you can choose which one you want. I just bought this fancy printer and have been tinkering with it. You just gave me an idea for my own wall!

Noted about the room, not a problem. I’ll put you in the main house then, I’ve had a last minute booking from a couple and I’ll put them in the studio instead. I’m looking forward to finally have you over. It’s about time! My son’s here helping out with the guests, but only until the end of September. It’s really a shame you’ll miss each other. I would have liked you to meet.

Anyway, I’ll be there at the station, October 24, 4:47 sharp.

Enjoy the rest of the summer !

See you soon,
Ollie
