Well, I know I'm not in Spain, but I wouldn't be a linguist if "My Fair Lady" didn't come to mind every time it rained!
I think rainy season is upon us! We had a huge storm yesterday, and a bunch more rain today. This is the view out my front door when it rains:


And here's what my living room turns into when there's rain and electricity all at the same time (the electricity would be the pre-requisite to using the guesthouse's washing machine :) ).

Since it was a holiday today, I took advantage of the fact that there was no one in the guesthouse washing sheets or anything, and I did a few loads of laundry (after cooking lunch for everyone on the compound since there wasn't anyone else to cook...).
And now I'm lounging on my day bed and feeling a bit chilly, enjoying the fact that I don't have to go out at 10:30pm to shut off the generator today! Of course, tomorrow the electricity will be turned off again ... but for now, I'll just enjoy the brief respite :)
