A rainbow or two
I went to visit my friend Galya, who lives exactly at the opposite end of town from me. The weather kept changing all day, but was mostly sunny. Then it had to start raining exactly when it was time for me to get off the trolley bus, and my umbrela wasn't of any use in the wind, but the rain wasn't very strong and the distance I had to walk wasn't very long. And as Galya went out to meet me at the beginning of her neighbourhood (because I was afraid i would get lost there), we got to see a rainbow - and then there was a second rainbow too although it wasn't as visible as the first one! I had my camera with me, as always, so I got to snap some photos, and most of them were even in focus if otherwise far from perfect. Galya didn't have her "real" camera with her, but took some photos with her cellphone camera (with varying success).
The weather was otherwise pretty warm, and the rain didn't last long, but we were already inside when it stopped anyway. Galya and I very rarely visit each other because it's much more convenient for us to meet in the middle of the road, but it was a pleasant change for me if a little unusual, and it was time well spent. Then I started walking back "part of the way" to get a bit of exercise (the rain had long stopped) and ended up walking the entire distance, and I don't even know how much it is (maybe 10 kilometers?). Well, it's time to get back into shape. :D
The early stage (only one rainbow):
And then there was the second rainbow:
A little further down the road (and the second rainbow had already almost disappeared).
