Monday 26th September 2011

Early rise and a quick breakfast to get to the department and get the report done ... feeling motivated especially now that the its soon time to return home.

Went through the document word by word and performed several corrections, fixed typos, added some new stuff and couple more pictures, and most importantly i scribbled all over where references needed to go in ...

At around noon i had updated the report and was prepared for the final proof-read ... but was very satisfied with the end product.

Clounds and rain still around and so was already determined to grab the bus back home as didn't want to get soaked ... so around 5pm ... armed with a hardcopy of the report ... i left the department and got back home ...

As i prepared to cook tonight's meal ... Noodles & Couscous ... i switched the TV on and nibbled some apetisers from left overs of the day before ... the fridge and my cupboard supplies were getting scarce ... and rightly so ... i will soon be out of here.

Noodles were fine but definitely needed a walk and something sweet ... so i decided to go for a walk down the street where a petrol station i visited on the first day here Horta is open for sure.

As i got there it was only drizzling but as i started to peel off the wrapper from my Cornetto Classico is was pouring ... so definitely staying at the petrol station until this massive cloud moves on from Faial to Pico ... its that simple ...

The rain subsided ... and the cornetto perished ... so grabbed a packet of choclate wafers and made my way home ... still drizzling ... but its all cool.

At home i prepared a nice tea and was determined to spend the evening watching TV and listening to the rain outside ... its such a nice feeling.

Around 11pm ... movie ended ... switched TV off ... opened the window even more ... and could feel the dropplets of rain as they hit the windowsill ... wrapped myself in the sheet and a cover and set myself to sleep ... Good night.

Half way through the night it was raining heavily and woke up at the splatting of the rain ... couldn't see Pico and not even Monte da Guia ... but it felt good to drop back in bed and enjoy the safety of the sheets ...
