rainy days, hurricanes and the like
Had a strange thing happen today. Looked out of the window while having breakfast and noticed it was raining quite heavily. However, when I returned to my room on the other side of the apartment there wasn’t a drop in sight. The rain barrier (or whatever you want to call it) must have been just above the apartment. Turns out this is quite a common occurence here where it rains very erratically and over very small areas and never lasts more than 5 or 10 minutes.
I also found out today that there is a hurricane on its way. If early trajectory calculations mean anything (which is unlikely but still possible) it will be passing over here on Sunday. Unfortunately, this is the same day that Sarah (the other Canadian joining us) arrives from Canada, not to mention the fact that I (and the rest of this place) might be taken out by one gigantic gust of wind. I’m told that if it passes within 300km of here we should be alright. Wish me luck.
