Yes, you read it right. Last week we had a Rain Day! It was fantastic. We drank hot chocolate, made and ate muffins and banana bread, and relaxed. It was my kind of day right in the middle of all the crazy end of year stuff. Santiago is a very modern city, but I have to remind myself that this is a developing country. There is modern, but the infrastructure is still a ways behind the emerging economy. It is very, very dry here, with very little rain so if you get two full days of hard rain the drainage systems over load. So to make room for crews to do the things they needed to help flooded streets, all private and public schools were asked cancel so that there would be a million less people out and about. Also 3 years ago when it rained like this there were mud slides, were people were killed, so caution was advised. All worked out well with no mudslides. And the next morning was crystal clear and the mountains were covered in snow - BEAUTIFUL!
