Rainy days are my favorite. First thing in the morning, I woke up to the sound of falling rain. It was pounding loudly on the roof and the pavement. When I woke up, it was still raining, and the temperature had already dropped a bit, which made the atmosphere very pleasant. This is the second tropical wave to hit the country during this rainy season, which is just beginning. After months of extreme drought, heat, and wildfires, many are eagerly awaiting the rain.
Los d铆as lluviosos son mis favoritos. En la madrugada me despert茅 con el sonido de la lluvia al caer. Se escuchaba fuerte sobre el techo y el pavimento. Cuando despert茅 todav铆a llov铆a y ya la temperatura hab铆a bajado un poco, haci茅ndola muy agradable. Esta es la segunda onda tropical que llega al pa铆s en esta temporada de lluvias que esta apenas comenzando. Despu茅s de meses de extrema sequ铆a, calor e incendios forestales la lluvia es esperada por muchos.
After having a nice hot cup of coffee and breakfast, I went outside to watch the rain. It had already let up a bit, so I took the opportunity to snap a few photos.
Despu茅s de tomar un cafecito bi茅n caliente y desayunar sal铆 a ver la lluvia. Ya hab铆a escampado un poco y aproveche de tomar unas fotograf铆as.
Across from the building where I live stands a large tree with lush foliage and a trunk covered in thorns. We call it Jabillo. Its outstretched branches are dripping with water. It must feel happy about this gift from nature.
Enfrente del edificio donde vivo est谩 un gran 谩rbol, de follaje frondoso y tronco con espinas. Le decimos Jabillo. Sus ramas extendidas est谩n llenas de agua. Debe sentirse feliz de ese regalo que la naturaleza le dio.
The ground was flooded, and in some places water had pooled, so I had fun, just like I did when I was a child, watching the raindrops fall and create ripples. I took several photos of this effect of the raindrops on the water.
El suelo estaba anegado y en algunos lugares se hab铆a acumulado el agua y me divert铆 como hac铆a cuando ni帽a , observando las gotas caer y formar ondas. Tom茅 varias fotograf铆as de este efecto de las gotas en el agua.
I went out to the backyard, and my turtle, Lolita, took advantage of the open door to slip out. She鈥檚 very agile; she hopped down the step and started exploring, walking among the plants, climbing up and down the remains of dry branches from some trees that had fallen during a stormy night.
I like how the leaves look with the water droplets on their surface. Some insects were flitting over the plants.
Sal铆 al patio de atras y mi tortuga Lolita aprovech贸 que la puerta qued贸 abierta para salir. Es muy 谩gil, baj贸 el escal贸n y empez贸 a explorar, caminando entre las plantas, bajando y subiendo entre los restos de palos secos de unos 谩rboles que se cayeron en una noche de tormenta. Me gusta como se ven las hojas con las gotas de agua sobre su superficie. Algunos insectos sobrevolaban las plantas.
Even the mango tree, heavy with fruit, looked radiant with the rain that came to wash its leaves and quench its thirst.
Hasta el 谩rbol de mango cargado de frutos se ve铆a resplandeciente con la lluvia que vino a lavar sus hojas y a saciar su sed.
The sky is still cloudy, even though the rain has stopped falling.
El cielo todav铆a esta nublado aunque ya la lluvia a dejado de caer.
