Well, Monica the Spanish weather lady was right. We had a catastrophe today.
It started raining last night, was still raining when jogging would have been undertaken. However, as we sat drinking naranja, then coffee, the pavement dried before our eyes.
Cautious, as always, waterproofs were donned and shopping done. More coffee and buns followed by a light lunch and before you knew it the fleet was returning. The joys of AIS. I suggested a walk which was eagerly acted upon although once it became apparent that boats doing what boats do once they get alongside was the focus of my perambulations I was deserted by the sailing club and allowed to continue alone.
There is something fascinating and ever so alluring about watching boats do what boats are meant to be doing, isn't there?
This was as bright as it got today but we avoided being rained on and another lovely, but not quite so warm day has passed and we survived the forecast catastrophe with fortitude, resilience and precautionary raincoats.
Tomorrow's forecast is more "normale" which I think means sun and high teens.
