A Rainy Day In Barbados, It Sure Sort of Reminds Me Of Scotland
Sunday sure was a rainy day, it rained heavily all night and for most of the day. At times it felt like I was back home in Aberdeen in Scotland, where I have known it to rain incessantly for 2 or 3 days at a time. The rain and wind sure felt the same, I suppose the big difference was that it was still fairly warm here; if it rained like that back home it sure would be cold.
I suppose that’s why they call it rainy season in Barbados, back home in Scotland we just call it normal weather! But for a loon from Aberdeen this isn’t anything that will faze me. The only problem is back home that I had the right kind of jacket for whatever the weather gods would throw at me. In Barbados it is a wee bit trickier because it is still so warm here when the rain comes pouring down.
The only jacket I have which I thought was gong to work, was a Cagoule, but it makes me sweat like crazy and I end up as wet on the inside as I do on the outside. I know I could wait for the rain to go off, but when you have work to do, you don’t just stop because of the weather, well you don’t if you come from Scotland.
Rainy season in Barbados I will have to find a jacket to defeat you just like I use to back home in Bonnie Scotland. The good news was that the rain went off in Christ Church about 7pm and everything returned to normal.
