Thursday morning it was raining, again. Thus far, for the better part of the week it’s been rainy, autumn-like almost. Naturally this bring obvious inconvenience to visitors, I guess you have to make the most of it at this point.

A major problem with the rain is the wind direction and speed. Normal trade winds function as a cooling device on a regular sunny day, and guarantees short rainy periods. This past week it hasn’t been like that. Periods of prolonged rainfall were predominant.
