The Rain in Spain

It’s hard to believe the amount of rain Granada has been having ever since I arrived in January. The weather in Granada is actually worse than the weather in Oregon, a state notorious for it’s rain! After an incident yesterday in which rainwater flooded onto the floor of my bedroom, I gave thanks for remembering to pack rain boots and a rain jacket. I can’t wait for the promised Granada sunshine to finally appear.
