Mid-July and the sun was setting somewhere around 10.30 pm:
Perfect for a late-night picnic on the pier.
As with all our picnics where Oscar is involved,
We end up pretty wet — whether we’ve been swimming or not!
Life is pretty good though:
Jump, enjoy life, repeat.

Oh My!!! Great colorful sky pictures with Oscar and children♡♡♡ So sorry that I couldn’t leave comment for your previous OWT.
Happy to find your post before going to bed, Night Night from Japn. Sincerely Yours, xoxo Miyako*
