On Friday night we were walking back to our home when we saw a very clear rainbow. That is one advantage to having rain and sun almost every day! Right now the sun is shining even though it was pouring rain just a few minutes age!
The windows in our apartment are very unique! They do not have any screens and there aren't very many bugs and no mosquitos so it doesn't matter. The windows are quite large and if you twist the handle 45 degrees, the window opens like a door. In Len and my bedroom the window goes all of the way to the floor so it really is like a door. (Except that we are on the third floor so you shouldn't step out of it!) If you turn the handle 180 degrees, the window stays closed at the bottom and the top tips in so you get air but not rain. That is a good thing because it does get stuffy in here when they are closed. They are also quite sound-proof. When we have our window closed we don't hear any noise from the river or from across the river. However, we prefer the fresh air so we leave ours tipped open and deal with the noise.
It gets light here about 5 a.m. but I haven't been awake at that time to notice. It gets dark between 10 and 10:30 at night.
