Wet and Windy

Wet and Windy

In case you are following this week’s scintillating weather updates from Symi… We did have rain on Wednesday as forecast, and it was heavy for a while. We also had a power cut in our part of the village, only for a short while, and another one later in the evening when we were saying goodbye to departing friends at the Rainbow. It’s always a fun atmosphere when you’re inside and plunged into darkness. Yiannis lit a candle, a couple of us used the torch on our phone, and just as we were settling in for a dark time, the power came back on. Such are the highlights of a Symi winter.

Yesterday dawned cloudy and a bit colder, and the wind (as I write) is forecast to get up to force seven, but it’s still quite calm now apart from some showers. That’s just as well as I have to go to Yialos to pick up a package and but some boat tickets. Anyway, as I’m rushing a bit, here are a few more shots from Wednesday.
