"A Long Summer"

A narrow escape  by roadrunner1180

It was definitely the hardest winter ever with people complaining about unemployment, taxes, political scandals and heartbreaking news about people moving to other countries in search of a better life.The couple next door were laid off and moved to the countryside  "Everything seems to have collapsed" I thought to myself , what now?

I can't stand here waiting all summer as if the destruction of the planet is about to happen. I am really fed up and wish to run away, or at least escape for a while. What if we organise a camping trip? River parties take place all over Greece and it'll be fun to relax by the river in the company of good friends listening to favourite bands.

Without a second thought, I grabbed the phone to call Kathrene first. "We need a little adventure in our lives" I screamed out of enthousiasm.

However, nothing could prepare me for what was going to happen..
