We went to Playita today. It was overcast on the walk there, and there were dark clouds offshore, but they looked to be blowing by quickly. They did, but there were bigger clouds behind them, and it started to rain while we were there. We stopped at the new restaurant that had been built there in the past year, to have drinks and wait for the rain to pass. The restaurant is open air, with tables on a patio. It had plastic see-through bags full of water hanging up in all the archways. We asked the guy working there what they were for, and he said they kept the flies away, but we weren’t sure of the translation.
The rain didn’t pass. Instead, it continued to come down with more intensity, and we ended up walking home in a downpour. When we got back, I took a shower but, as Hope and Brad pointed out, it would have probably been a better shower from the freshwater rain than from the salty well that feeds our faucets.
