Questa Sera

Buona Sera, tonight is the 12th of Sept. Here in Positano we’re experiencing a major thunder storm. Very little rain but lots of thunder and lightning. I suppose it is raining hard on the other side of the mountain we cling to. The electricity….why is always the electricity !, has been cut back. We have some lights, but air conditioning, refrigerator, everything else is off. The Italian version of a brown out. Our showers were cold tonight, luckily we ate before the storm arrived. Lisa went to figure out our departure via hydrofoil while Clare and I went to the beach…la spiaggia, one last time. The clouds were ominous and the thunder was quite loud. Clare determined the clouds were angry.

Tomorrow we return to Rome. Hydrofoil to Salerno, train to Roma. We hope that Italy Accom has found us a suitable apartment. The hardest part of all this has been the unknowning. Having your life in the hands of people you don’t know and who seem so incompetent. We’ll see what transpires. Meanwhile Lisa and I are thinking of “Plan B”.
It’s always good to have a secondary plan at hand. It gives you options, it can even give you leverage. Ciao, Tommaso
