Rain

Getting wet is not so bad. At least not when you're in the shower, where the whole purpose is getting wet (and clean). But when you're out walking, you're not supposed to get wet.

On Thursday morning, as we were shopping for a couch, Pepperfly and I also made our way to a shop that sold rain gear amongst many other things. After nearly getting a heart attack when I saw the price of the cheapest one (about 10 times more expensive than in the Netherlands), I got over it and started looking. I found a nice suit, but it only came in small. Then I found a yellow suit. Bright yellow. Tweety yellow! I tried it on. It fit. 

I got the suit. In dark grey. But I did get the yellow Tweety hat. Just because...
