The Rain..

The rain was sliding down our windscreen all day! Sometimes the noise on the roof of our motorhome was deafening, other times just light. We had 83mm of rain. The Cyclone went through!
Three good things:
1. We didn't have any wind whereas other areas in the country had damaging winds.
2. Stayed inside all day - found out how things worked by reading the manual.
3. Had a full larder so no worries.

Love the focus and colors. Glad you made it through the cyclone without damage.

[Boo]

so glad the cyclone was "nice" to you. Stay safe!

[Lesley Chisholm]

It sounds like you escaped pretty well. I like your photo, it really portrays your day.

[kali]

nice photo, we got away without too much damage too, a few broken trees

[Bep]

Glad to read you are sound and safe.

[Pat Knowles]

I think you had the better choice with the rain maggie...wind in a camper van wouldn't be very pleasant.....hope the ferry is calm too!

[Annie D]

Glad you're ok
it looks very dismal

[Sally Ings]

Glad to hear that you are safe. Interesting view through the window

@happypat We were on a concrete stand Pat - just watched all the puddles getting bigger elsewhere! Sun shining now!

[Maggiemae]

@salza These were little cabins for rent and they were all taken by the night!

[Helen Jane]

That is a lot of rain. Good to see you are still posting! I can see why you decided to stay in all day.

[K1W1]

Glad to hear that you are okay. Nothing nicer than being able to stay inside on a rainy day. I love the sound of the rain on the roof of our trailer :)

[Maggiemae]

@k1w1 At times we had to turn the sound of the radio up a lot!

[Pam Knowler]

Glad to see and hear you have survived the cyclone! Great image! We used to have a static caravan at the seaside and I remember what the rain sounds like - it must have been deafening!

[Maggiemae]

@pamknowler Just glad, Pam, that we had no leaks!

[Krista Marson]

makes for a great textured photograph!

[Lou Ann]

Love this photo, you can sure tell it’s raining! Glad you weren’t swept away!

[Myrna O'Hara]

Great rain shot.

[Debra]

Great colors! We have had nothing but nonstop rain all day

[katy]

I love the watercolor (no pun intended) effect you have captured with this and your three good things

[Babs]

Gad you made it through the cyclone. Maybe you should buy a tee shirt.

[gloria jones]

Great image showing the raindrops on the window and the blurred background...#4 is a must :).

[Maggiemae]

@onewing One that had 'survived a cyclone' on it, Babs?

[Maggiemae]

@grammyn You know it really is a water colour! Maybe watercolours are just as seen through water in different ways!

[Tony]

Would love to have just a fraction of that rain. Neat capture.

[Taffy]

Conveys the dreary day soooo well!

[Valerie Chesney]

Lovely shot, we are having some rain too..

[Casablanca]

Delighted to hear you are safe and sound after the cyclone. This sums up hiding from the storm so well!

[ChristineL]

Good to know you haven't floated away!

[Babs]

@maggiemae Yes. It would be brilliant.

[Daisy Miller]

Lovely rainy day shot. Keep safe.

[M. Brutus]

Glad the wind missed you. Wouldn't want to be in a motor home if a funnel was passing through.

[Dianne]

So good that you were tucked up and out of the rain.

[Ann H. LeFevre]

Sounds cozy! Glad that the storm basically passed you by. And it sounds like you had plenty to keep you entertained and fed while waiting for the rain to stop.
