i finally caught a glimpse of the sun this week

We have had a lot of rain this week. Everyday I deal with umbrellas, puddles, and the color gray.

It rains in Curico about 3-4 days a week. The warm air comes from the north of Chile and meets with the cold air from the south of Chile in my region. It never snows here because it warms up (only) when it rains. Then, it gets bitter cold after the showers. It is so odd that the temperature is freezing, until it rains.

I do love it though! I love rain. And i love it when the sun finally pops out the day afterwards. The sky is turquiose and it brightens the mood of the town. I promise to get a good picture of the Andes as soon as i remember to bring my camera. I can see the mountains from my school if the clouds dont block my view.
