Okay. We take it back, whatever we’ve said or done that might have come across offensive. Because apparently the weather gods are angry because besides the rain they now have thrown in thunder and lightning as well. A typical day to stay in, shut the curtains and go back to bed. But when you live on a boat sometimes you cannot permit yourself that luxury. We had to go to the harbour office to recharge our budget card because we were out of shore power. In this marina you have to pay for each KWH. After you have used up that batch, you have to activate the shore power again with a budget card. And there was no money left anymore on our card. And since we really wanted a mug of warm tea, we had to brave the weather to recharge the card at the machine.
But we always try to look on the bright side of life. So we hop-skipped through the rain, imagining ourselves to be Gene Kelly while we were ‘Singin’ in the rain’.
