Love the pictures and commentary Was it refreshing to have some rain? We are finally getting some sun here in Uk.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Mary, I am glad you finally got the sun back!
ReplyDeleteYes, the downpour was very refreshing, especially when you wore a linen dress like me and were soaked to the bone. I felt like a wet mouse. The sun came back in full force, and I was dry in now time, though. :-)
Beautiful photo essay, Merisi,
ReplyDeleteThe first two shots are my favourites.
Keep smiling

Looks like we have exchanged weathers...

I love the way you use the sun's reflection on the wet cobblestones.
Oh Merisi that rain looks so cool and refreshing. I wish you would send some of that our way!

Oh we had a sudden rainfall, too. I have posted a photo of the clouds gathering above the gulf. The temperature dropped from 35C to 15C in a matter of less than an hour. Love summer storms, especially when I can take refuge at a nearby cafe!
