LLOVIÓ EN ESPAÑA. Y no solo en la llanura. Durante la noche y entrada la tarde del lunes, llovió y soplaron los vientos (los vientos ciclónicos de San Geraldo). Nos pareció fascinante, aunque San Geraldo y los gatos eventualmente se pusieron nerviosos (porque todos son más inteligentes que yo). Me paré en la terraza y observé que los vientos y los mares cambian constantemente de dirección. Me sentí seguro detrás de nuestra cortina de vidrio hasta que los paneles del techo volaron desde un restaurante cercano y el estuco comenzó a volar desde un edificio. Luego me uní a los gatos dentro, en el otro extremo del piso.

DeleteI saw a palm tree that had been ripped apart about 15 feet off the ground. The top half of the tree crashed a roof of a chiringuito on the beach. I'm surprised there wasn't more of that around. Lots of smaller trees came out of the ground, but nothing major.
Again, I'm like you ...during a hurricane in Miami I stood at the window watching things fly by the house until Carlos mentioned something flying into the window.
ReplyDeleteBob:
DeleteSometimes I'm not very sharp!
I hope there aren't any birds in there
ReplyDeleteAdam:
DeleteThe other side of the vent is the outside wall of the building. So, birds may be hanging out on the little ridge formed outside, but that's about it... I hope.
I can see where you have a few laughs every day with those two!
ReplyDeletesillygirl:
DeleteThey are sure entertaining. Dudo was staring at Jerry tonight while we sat in the living room. We would talk to him and he just continued to sit on the floor staring. Jerry started to stand up at one point and Dudo flew through the air and onto the chair. He was simply willing him to move, so he could settle in the nice warm place he left behind.
Ha! Those two are hilarious.
ReplyDeleteThat must have been amazing to watch!

DeleteThe storm was beautiful. The cats did not agree. Thanks to them, I don't need TV.
Impressive sea spray blowing off the tops of those waves. I bet it was exciting to watch - until smarter heads (and butts?) prevailed.
ReplyDeleteWilma:
DeleteOnce those smarter heads (and butts) prevailed, I tried watching from inside, but two levels of windows were so much less fun.
Rain in Spain gives one the right to complain
ReplyDeleteBut losing your pants in France would be worse.
That's my stance.
Happy Hanukah!

DeleteAnd in an earthquake in Norway, one should always find a doorway?
Your fur friends spend a lot of time on birds, but have they ever caught one?

DeleteI've been told by some people here that they see whales "all the time" from their terraces. If they do, it's an exaggeration since we haven't seen a single one in five years, but I'm hoping to one day write a blog post titled "Thar She Blows."
