Rainy day.

At last the rain came!  Of course, we would have preferred if it had held off just a few more days, but much rain was needed!

It started yesterday and has been falling for 24 hours almost non-stop.  It has been accompanied by thunder storms and strong wind.  It seems to be settling down a bit as I write (mid day Tuesday 23rd, but it doesn't look too hopeful that it'll clear enough to fly today.  Kyle has been fascinated by the amount of rain and is itching to go out in his wellies and play.  We'll go down to Curium beach for a look in a short while and watch the huge waves crashing on the beach.  I love wild winter seascapes like that!   I think that, whilst a help, the island needs much more water than this, but still, this is a start for sure!  Just hope we get some nicer weather for Christmas day.
