We listened to thunder and lightning all through the night. This morning we woke to an overcast and rainy day. Also we have no internet. Not a good start to the day. I walked downtown looking for wifi...our Ximo Cafe doesn't even have it. I had a good visit with our Australian waitress and the chef/owner. More questions about why we are here in the winter, this coldest winter in memory, lol.....
I found a cafe down the street with wifi and settled in with a cappuccino. Sent George an email regarding our internet access, checked my FB and IMessages and the weather forecast.
A few hardy souls out in the rain. Sitting under cover looking out at the drizzle.
Today I walked the whole way back without stopping to catch my breath. It is a first since we have been climbing our way home. We spend the afternoon quietly. It is easier for me to put in an unconnected day by painting. A little harder for Bob but he has managed. We had an early dinner and then a good visit with George. It is unusual for him to have guests for this length of time at this time of year. I think he enjoys the fact that we are interested in him, his family and their life in Malta.
Another happy painting afternoon. I don't very often get to do on sight painting but I always keep a mental list of the things I want to record. Hopefully tomorrow will be a drier day. The weather forecast looks promising. One day at home is enough. We are ready to go out again.
