Shaun got called out to three separate MVAs... he is on the fire department here. One was a fatality, and had the traffic blocked up along the highway. We walked out to pick up Ali and Brad from school, and there was a news helicopter circling the area. The accident happened right in front of the pub where Drew and Shaun were going later in the evening. The wreck was still there in front of the pub.
The rain pounded down later in the evening. It caused such a roar that I couldn't believe it was rain. It was torrential... like that rain we had in January 2007 when our house flooded! The thing is, here it stops after a bit, and does not continue on for four or five months like it does at home.
Max in the rain
You can't tell in this photo, but it was just bucketing down! The mist forms in the valley below and rises, which is very pretty!
In the evening, we watched 'The Blues Brothers'. For Drew saying he doesn't have a good memory, he could pretty much recite the dialog of the whole movie. Ali and Brad seemed to love it! Leanne... not so much! But it was a fun movie night. And we discovered a new junk food... twisties! Think Hawkins Cheesies with a bit of... vegemite. Surprisingly good!
