We have all been battling storms and bad weather this last week, and especially here on Symi in the last couple of days. We were up during the night on Thursday/Friday, putting down towels, unplugging things and checking the shutters. The storm came in around 1.30 a.m. and then rolled away, came back and rolled past again, then later in the morning on Friday came back again.
At one point on Friday morning there were two Electricity Board guys outside the house, up the pole, swinging wires around and, I assume, fixing next door’s supply. I did hear a strange ‘bang’ sound during the night. Each time it rained or hailed or thundered, they took shelter under our balcony and each time I went to tell them to take shelter inside our lobby it was pelting too hard for me to get out there.
But still, enough about that, Saturday has dawned bright and clear, as if nothing had happened. Here are some photos from Neil taken last weekend. You can click to open them in the lightbox and then run a slideshow if you want. Have a good weekend and stay dry!
