Chyba nie zapomnimy momentu, kiedy robiąc pranie (wrzucając do pralki co się da w pośpiechu, jak to mamy w zwyczaju), Grace wyciągnęła buta Oli z koszuli Mateusza i powiedziała: - Przemek, oni piorą buty razem z ubraniami! What the ****?! I don't get it. [hahaha] Dzień 3: Po pysznym śniadaniu (jajecznica z PRAWDZIWYCH jaj, dobre warzywa, sery, domowa wędlina i utęskniona herbata) żegnamy ...
