Slightly wet
Monday was a slightly wet day. We were down in Yialos for a while, and it had already been raining. Luckily, we were able to take a taxi back up the hill, and later, when Neil was at work, we had more rain. No problem there; the courtyard plants enjoyed it despite the watering I had given them earlier, and the only thing we suffered was a drip into the bathroom as we’ve not repainted the roof with that special paint. That’s a job for another day, and it’s only a small drip into what is a wet room, so we’re not too bothered.
Tuesday dawned slightly cloudy but already, by 7.00 as I write this (yesterday), the clouds have cleared. The air is chilly but should warm up later, and apart from the weather report, there’s not a lot else to tell just yet. Oh, we did notice a few more people arriving from Rhodes on the Spanos catamaran the other day, a few with suitcases, but we got the impression these were army recruits or possibly teachers coming to take up their posts, rather than the first signs of tourism. Still, it’s a cautious start and that, I feel, is what’s needed.
