Grilling at Suviana Lake.

in Worldmappin10 months ago

Good evening Hivers how are you? These days I have been a bit absent because I found a new job at least for the month of June and also because I continue to fight against my mental disorders. But on Sunday I took a little trip with some friends to Lake Suviana, a beautiful stretch of land in the Tuscan-Emilian Apennines which unfortunately has been the site of a serious tragedy in recent months (a fire in the hydroelectric power station where some workers died), it's a very large artificial basin, surrounded by woods equipped for both camping and barbecues, you can't always swim here, but in summer there are various marine sports activities that are carried out in this lake. The place is usually quiet but on summer Sundays it is always very crowded, it is about an hour and a half from where I live and it is a much appreciated destination by the inhabitants of my area. My friends and I left early to find a free grilling spot. Luckily the weather was a little gray and we found various free positions without having to walk too far through the beautiful woods. As soon as we arrived we immediately sat down on the stone tables and started lighting the fire for the grill. Luckily it wasn't raining and the fire took off well.

Buenas noches Hivers ¿cómo estás? Estos días he estado un poco ausente porque encontré un nuevo trabajo al menos para el mes de junio y también porque sigo luchando contra mis trastornos mentales. Pero el domingo hice un pequeño viaje con unos amigos al lago Suviana, una hermosa extensión de tierra en los Apeninos tosco-emilianos que desgraciadamente ha sido escenario de una grave tragedia en los últimos meses (un incendio en la central hidroeléctrica donde algunos trabajadores muerto), es una piscina artificial muy grande, rodeada de bosques acondicionados tanto para acampar como para hacer barbacoas, aquí no siempre se puede nadar, pero en verano son diversas las actividades deportivas marinas que se realizan en este lago. El lugar suele ser tranquilo pero los domingos de verano siempre hay mucha gente, está a una hora y media aproximadamente de donde vivo y es un destino muy apreciado por los habitantes de mi zona. Mis amigos y yo salimos temprano para buscar un lugar libre para asar. Por suerte, el tiempo estaba un poco gris y encontramos varias posiciones libres sin tener que caminar demasiado por los hermosos bosques. Tan pronto como llegamos, inmediatamente nos sentamos en las mesas de piedra y comenzamos a encender el fuego de la parrilla. Por suerte no llovía y el fuego se propagó bien.

While my husband and my friend's husband were grilling, she and I decided to have an aperitif, a classic spritz at the bar near the lake. To get there we took a nice walk through the vegetation, the route is quite simple and there are many paths and small bridge, you can walk quite well, even if some parts of the forest are more difficult to walk through, there are various clearings all with a magnificent view of the lake. We noticed that compared to a few months ago when my friend came there with her family, the water had risen, perhaps also due to the numerous rains of recent days. The walk was pleasant and we extended the route because we are both a little chubby and a few extra steps would be useful. Then we arrived at the bar and enjoyed our spritz with campari, a classic Italian aperitif, the bar was located on the street and is usually frequented by motorcyclists, they love to come to the Apennines on their motorbikes. Afterwards we returned and found the meat already ready, cooked and crunchy, as a side dish we had made some cold rice with vegetables, unfortunately due to the problems with my teeth and throat I didn't stuff myself as much as I would have liked but I assure you that the meat it was good and eating in the middle of the woods was very relaxing, then luckily there were also several hidden bushes for peeing. After the barbecue we sat for a while talking and drinking beer and then we took another short walk through the woods in search of wood and pine cones that my friend uses to make some handmade crafts, as the weather was not of the best we didn't even try to swim in the lake, however I hope that we will return soon perhaps with better weather to even go for a swim.

Mientras mi marido y el marido de mi amiga hacían una parrillada, ella y yo decidimos tomar un aperitivo, un clásico spritz en el bar cerca del lago. Para llegar hicimos un bonito paseo entre la vegetación, el recorrido es bastante sencillo y hay muchos senderos y un pequeño puente, se puede caminar bastante bien, aunque algunas partes del bosque son más difíciles de atravesar, hay varios claros. todo con una magnifica vista al lago. Notamos que en comparación con hace unos meses, cuando mi amiga vino con su familia, el agua había subido, quizás también debido a las numerosas lluvias de los últimos días. La caminata fue agradable y ampliamos el recorrido porque los dos estamos un poco gorditos y unos pasos extra nos vendrían bien. Luego llegamos al bar y disfrutamos de nuestro spritz con campari, un clásico aperitivo italiano, el bar estaba ubicado en la calle y suele ser frecuentado por motociclistas, les encanta venir a los Apeninos en moto. Después volvimos y encontramos la carne ya lista, cocida y crujiente, como guarnición habíamos hecho un poco de arroz frío con verduras, lamentablemente por los problemas de dientes y garganta no me comí tanto como me hubiera gustado. pero os aseguro que la carne estaba buena y comer en medio del bosque fue muy relajante, además por suerte también había varios arbustos escondidos para orinar. Después del asado nos sentamos un rato a conversar y tomar cerveza y luego dimos otro corto paseo por el bosque en busca de madera y piñas que mi amiga usa para hacer algunas manualidades hechas a mano, ya que el clima no era el mejor que hicimos. Ni siquiera intento nadar en el lago, sin embargo, espero que regresemos pronto, quizás con mejor clima, para incluso ir a nadar.
