昨日のぎっくり腰は本当にプチで、10分後にはほぼ普通に動けていました。動きによっては多少痛みを感じますが筋肉痛のような痛みで、神経の痛みではないので大丈夫そうです。でも、気をつけて動いてはいますし、一応湿布もしています(夕方まで忘れていて慌ててしましたが、忘れるくらいなのでほぼ普通に戻っています)。
My back seems OK, I was able to start moving in a normal way about 10 minutes after I had the pain yesterday. Today, I'd even forgotten until I had a little pain when I was getting out of our car, the pain isn't strong and it feels like muscle pain rather than sharp pain so I think I'm fine. I am trying to be careful how I move but I often forget it.
今日は、かなり久しぶりに「West Dean Gardens」に行って来ました。主なところをぐるっと回って歩いて、2.5キロ暗い(4000歩弱)とそれほど歩くわけではないですが、まぁ、歩かないよりは良い。今日のお天気は晴れたり曇ったりで、午前中は晴れ、ランチの後で出かけたのですが出かける時は結構曇っていたものの、歩いている途中からまた晴れて来て良いお天気になりました。
We went to "West Dean Gardens" today and strolled the main part of them, it was only about 2.5km (a little less than 4,000 steps) so not a long walk but better than none. It was changeable today, sometimes very sunny and sometimes very cloudy. When we left home it was quite cloudy but got much nicer while we were walking in the gardens.
West Dean Gardens にはたくさん果樹が植えられていて林檎もたくさん植えられています。いろいろな種類のものがあり、好きな林檎を小さな紙袋に入るだけ入れて2ポンドで売られていたので、興味本位で買ってみました。自然に成っているものなので傷がたくさんついていて痛みかけているものも多く、紙袋いっぱいにはせずに8割くらい入れました。
In West Dean Gardens, there are many fruit trees and many of them are apple trees and they were selling them (many different kinds), you buy a small paper bag at £2 and you can fill it up with as many apples as they fit. We have plenty of apples at home but we were curious to try different kinds so bought them. As they are naturally grown, most of them were either damaged or going off so we didn't find good enough ones to fill the bag, we filled it up to about 80%.





わたしたちはTシャツの上にフード付きのスエット、その上にわたしはバーバー、夫はウィンドブレーカーのようなものを着ていましたが、周りの人たちはもっと薄着でびっくり。16度くらいだったので歩くのには気持ちの良いお天気でしたが、風が吹くと結構寒かったです。
We were wearing a T-shirt, then a hoody, then I had my Barbor on and my husband had something like a wind breaker, but other people weren't wearing that many layers, many of them were wearing just a swet shirt or even just a T-shirt. It was about 16C so nice weather to walk but sometimes it felt a bit chilly with the wind blowing.






















ぐるっと回って歩いた後は、お決まりの、カフェでお茶。コーヒー&胡桃ケーキをシェアーしましたが、ふんわりとしてとても美味しかったです。コーヒー&胡桃ケーキはイギリスのカフェでの定番のケーキですが、どっしり重いものもあればアイシングが多すぎて甘すぎるものもあります、今日のケーキは軽くて甘すぎず美味しかったです。
After walking the main parts, we had tea at their cafe like we often do. We also shared a piece of Coffee & Walnut cake. Coffee & Walnut cake seems to be in most cafes but some of them are very heavy or very sweet with thick cream but this one was very light, not too much cream and was lovely.
