From our villa didn't notice the colour Tamara had in her photos it just appeared mostly grey, dull and cold with many rain showers all day here in Caleta.  We had thunder and lighting about 2am and it has been raining on and off over night and still is.

                           

This morning at 8.15am the sun is trying to make an appearance at the same time it is raining, there is a rainbow, it is windy and only 12C.

Tindaya - today's selection of rainbow bits etc. More showers, very cold. (Tenerife and GC high ground have snow!) It's heaving it down as I write, again!

 

 this is one of the lowest rainbows I've ever seen!

  beautiful definition in the rain-washed air and ground.

Nothing from John this morning?

Tindaya - showers continued Friday night and into Saturday morning but last one was mid morning. Overnight temp was 10C - bloomin freezing!



Spoke to a lady who lives in Vallebron and they went down to 6C - shudder, shiver!

Day stayed very cold with a strong northerly wind, some sun, lots of cloud. As at 10pm it has gone down to 11C.

A lot more sun today thank goodness but several periods of major cloud. Very light shower first thing. Wind lighter but still very cold. Good temps in sheltered sun, great for working in garden!
