The white block has fifty-six rounded balconies. On a Sunday morning I counted what was on them: thirty-one with plants, eleven with bicycles, four with nothing at all.

A seaside block and a mountain lodge, both built around their balconies.

The lodge has fifty-six too, in timber. On every one of them there were boots.
