We’ve had almost constant rain since last night. This morning it’s hitting us hard. On the brink of a new year, that’s been a welcome change, as it’s cleared the children and fireworks from the streets. The noise of explosions has been constant since before Christmas, and here you can buy fireworks that sound like cannons when they go off. At least the rain is forgiving on my eardrums, even the distant thunder.
