Rain in August is a very strange phenomena in Monchique.
The temperature is over 30º and the humidity is suddenly high. Our pool is the best place to be untill the lighting strikes and thunder is rolling through the air. The rain starts to fall in big, warm drops washing anyway the dust and leaving the plants and he forest with a bright green. The air is full of smells.
Half an hour later the clouds break open and the sun is back as if it has never been away.
