The marathons referred to here are the ones we used to do on the holiday mornings in last year’s holiday in Mallorca. The ones were you get up and the first thing you do is sprint to reserve yourself the best sunbed using your towel. Because else the Germans (well, other Germans, I guess) come and take them away – also by means of their towels. In case that wasn’t clear. We don’t really do any other marathons.
And now we’re not going to do these holiday morning ones, either! Because we have found the best thing since the invention of sliced bread: a private jacuzzi.
During this year’s holiday, we went to a nice hotel on Crete – „La Mer“ – and booked a room with a private, heated jacuzzi. The weather wasn’t so good during the week either, such that this tub became the source of all our joy. Next to all the gyros, naturally. We spent so much time in the hot water that we came back from the holiday fully sous-vide cooked.
