I mean, FINALLY. And man, it’s been raining up a storm. Like this one I got caught out in today on a lunchtime Tapas Tour. This screen grab doesn’t really do the experience justice – you can see the short vid over here… Azahar Instagram.

During any particularly cold winter here we still usually get up to 15-17º during the day and never go below freezing overnight. Meanwhile we are in the midst of a serious drought and energy crisis, with the local government asking residents to cut back on their water and electricity usage. Heck, they are even restricting the Christmas lights to 6-11 pm. BUT they have installed not one but TWO outdoor ice skating rinks in the city for the holiday season. What the actual…??? Imagine the cost of maintaining these two completely unnecessary installations. Why the hell should there be ice skating in the south of Spain? Why is our city council adopting this completely foreign concept… and who even knows how to ice skate here? This doesn’t belong here, especially now. Honestly, the mind reels.

We can but hope. Previous forecasts of rainy weather have resulted in a few light showers and not much else. Certainly not enough to help us out of the serious drought conditions we’re facing here. But this week… it’s supposed to be all rain rain rain. Morcilla (and myself) are happy to watch the weather from “the office” at home. There’s something extra cosy about being warm and dry at home when it’s cold and rainy outside.
