Random Thoughts – Weather

Nearly everyone at the school is cold. “Mucho Frio!” they exclaim. It seems really nice here to me. The weather never stays the same – except it’s always about 60 degrees. From dawn to dusk there’s sunshine, clouds (sometimes low enough to envelope the building) and rain.

For the third day in a row an afternoon thunderstorm rolled in. The lightening is stunning the thunder seems louder here. I got caught in this afternoon’s storm, which included hail (as did the last three days’ storms)! I stood under a small overhang for ten or 15 minutes while it poured until my pants from the knees down were soaked. I grabbed the next taxi that rolled by and for $1.50 I was back at my host family’s home in no time.
