I saw all grades of liquid sunshine, from a fine mist to a fall

so heavy it nearly blotted out a nearby mountain. The man

at the pool bar was surprised I was happy to swim in it, but

I pointed out that whether the water was around, or falling

on you, it was all wet!

Yes. And the women who joined them were those who had

strong spirits, perhaps money backing them, or supportive

husbands or male colleagues. They were also few and far

between because of the patriarchal societies of the times!

Discrimination is nothing new. Happy Birthday Mary Anning.

Thinking of all ground-breaking women in various fields:

Ada Lovelace, Mary Seacoal, Florence Nightingale to name

but three others.

We've just been in a rain forest area. So of course it rained,

but it's warm rain and not a burden. The locals call it liquid

sunshine!

I've just been in a warm climate with plenty sun - and have

returned home covered in mosquito bite and have swollen

ankles and feet!! Swings and roundabouts...
