Rain

No one remembers when exactly the rain started -- probably 2 weeks ago. To be fair, there were a couple of hours when it stopped and the sun came out, and we even went for a walk. Was that on Sunday? Venezia is flooded; the Tiber rose by 10.5 meters and threatened to flood Rome. A woman drowned in her car in a tunnel.

Finally, this morning the sun came out. Viterbo emerged clean and refreshed, a little wet...





This is the persimmon tree (cachi in Italian, pronounced "kaki") that we noticed last time and wanted to photograph but couldn't because of the rain.



At about 3pm it started raining again... Two days of school left before the Christmas break.
