Then drove back down the mountain and happened across an 8 year old kid looking after his herd of cattle, all with bells on. And tell you what those bells work, they make quite a sound and it was delightful to watch them munching away creating their own symphony.
Ben was pretty shocked a kid only a year older than him had to spend his days standing under an umbrella in the pouring rain looking after cows and Ben's concern was palpable:
“But doesn't he get to go to school?”
Yup, but spends his summers wandering around with cows. I think Ben should get a summer job too. Any suggestions?
The next day, due to his approaching birthday as a kind of treat, Simon had decided to hire a speed boat to go on Lake Como and he kindly let Ben, Finley and I tag along with him and Rachelle, Milli and Finn.
Now I didn't think I would ever get to hoon about on Lake Como in a speed boat but I tell you, it shits all over Bonny Doon.
