One Day One Photo - 1

Last year I did a series where I recorded one photo every day during the month of September. It was about giving a snapshop of different things I experience for one month, and giving an insight into some of the antics I get up to. So here goes:

Saturday 1st September

View from my flat. I haven't been living long in Milan, but I have noticed that here we experience weather that goes from one extreme to another.

Just over a week ago I was struggling to stay comfortable in temperatures approaching 40degC.
It is not just the heat, but the humidity which is the problem. You get very sticky, it is difficult to sleep at night, and there is also the issue of obnoxious mosquitoes.

Thankfully that's all gone now, but it has been replaced with heavy rain showers. Sometimes the rain comes down so hard that I think the roof will fall in. That was the case this morning. I had been thinking of going for a bike ride, but in the end I didn't quite fancy it!

The raindrops on the window are so beautiful. I never really thought I'd feel this way, but I miss heavy rainstorms like the ones we used to have on the East Coast when I was a kid.

Looking forward to seeing more photos this month!

Nice to hear from you bicyclechica. If you come to Milan there'll be no shortage of heavy rainstorms. In fact there's one going on right now!
