it was as if there was a giant leak in a giant faucet in a tiny bathtub in our tiny apartment… and the incessant drip-drip-dripping is annoying the heck out of me!
oh no, it wasn’t at all like a broken fire hydrant gushing water and everybody comes out to play, oh nonononono!
i am talking about the rainy week we’ve had last week and how it kinda put a little bit of gloom in my boom.
it was only the other day that the clouds parted to let in the sun. so everybody was out and about. i saw mothers came out pushing babies with clear symptoms of cabin fever. i saw fathers came out with grocery lists in one hand and mobile phones in the other.
and then i saw this…
and this!
worked up a sweat hiking up to the Upper Rock Nature Reserve with the mister and got rewarded with spectacular views and when we came down… oh hello there most vivid, most intense double rainbow!
its been a while since i have seen one of these. powerful magic!

Beautiful! And so worth the wait. We are sorely lacking sun here, and will be for the next few months mostly.

DeleteCraziness! I love rainy weather. It always brings out the best of Nature when it clears.
ReplyDeletethat is so true trudy :)
DeleteMagic Indeed!
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful....doesn't it make you feel happy to be able to contemplate that!
Its raining buckets and buckets at this moment here in Alicante!

Amanda :-)
thank you amanda! i must have stared at that double rainbow for a good long while :) and pointing it out to everyone who passed by our balcony :)
DeleteI hate that drip-drip-drip sound too! You can make it stop at least while you sleep... tie some yarn or string so that the drip catches it and then it just "scoots" down that instead of dripping :-)
ReplyDeletethanks for the tip cheryl! ill be sure to do that :)
