Between Saturday and today we have had the equivalent of 3 months rain here. The Malaga airport has been closed due to flooding. Sue & Trevor, the owners of this house, are flying out to Greece tomorrow. I had to get them to replace the loo seat in the bathroom which had shattered, despite being an up market one. It was not our fault! Their new property over near Frigiliana became inaccessible due to the effect of rain so Trevor had to relocate the people flying in tomorrow in a friend's property.
This afternoon, despite the rain, we drove out to check out the coast road and experienced a huge three way fork of lightning as we drove. We then decided to head for Malaga area before coming back to base. Just as we reached the junction we got a phone call from Sue and accidentally went the wrong way. We therefore decided to find the village, La Vinuela, which gives its name to the huge Lake Vinuela nearby. We had seen it on a TV property programme so drove through to see it close up. Its nice but you need mountain goat physique to cope with its steep streets.
We got back to find Trevor just about to leave after replacing the "seat". Had a little chat before he dashed off to get ready for Greece tomorrow. We are looking forward to a real change in the weather and plenty of pool time.
