Recordist's notes

There is a small sand pit for children in this secluded spot with one wooden bench to sit on. If one does you are facing an apartment block that is being renovated. It is covered with white sheets that flap silently when there's a breeze. Occasionally distance sounds of dropping material can be heard. The rain increases but the chattering sparrows pay it no attention.
