WE ALMOST DRAWN WE ALMOST DRAWN Unbelievable. Today is june the 24th. The summer has just started in Madrid. At least officially, because we are bearing temperatures above 30 º Celsius for more than a month. At this time of the year, it may be very pleasant to walk around Madrid historical centre. So we decided to start at the Palacio Real, and finish at Puerta del Sol. We were walking down Arenal St, window shopping, and watching all the different tourists that are visiting our city When suddenly, Unbelievable! A drop. Can you imagine it starts raining? Now? We asked each other. And then yes. It started raining. A lot. The rain quickly turned quite heavy, and the street emptied. All the people ran to shelter from rain under the awnings, and so we did. In five minutes the rain turned in one of the heaviest rains I have ever seen. It lasted almost two hours and flooded Madrid Center. A climate change effect or simply a random climatic event? I don't know but we almost drown.
