in miami and swept in rain. can’t bear this weather much longer. this weather does not suit miami. everyone here is just so spoiled with continuos sunshine. this city is not designed to tolerate so many rainy days. thunder and rain; at friends for dinner. just the best to have friends, that cook for you, offering much delight to these dreary weather days. conversation flowed as dinner was savoured. films were discussed. which brought to mind, that on these countless rainy days, snuggling in bed to watch Snatch, Cinema Paradiso, Don’t Move, Roman Holiday, Quartet, Inglourious Basterds, Gran Torino, Amores perros, 8½ (1963), Swept Away, Il Postino: The Postman, The Usual Suspects, The Unbearable Lightness of Being, My Fair Lady, There Will Be Blood, The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie, El crimen del padre Amaro, The Crying Game, The Town, Midnight in Paris, I Am Love, The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, The Ghost Writer, The King’s Speech, The Secret in Their Eyes, and The Social Network would be a very cozy option. i realized how dreadful it is to continuously complain about the weather. not much can be done. nature is an uncontrollable force. best to make the best of rainy days. and i can see that these days can bring light, if just on a screen. these can be luvFAB rainy days. mostly if i won’t need another film list. swept in rain has cozy options for thebestdressup now!
Very well written – and very well captured photos… 😉
Rainy days doesn’t need to be off days… 🙂 😉

I’d go with 81/2 (but I’m very pretentious). Rainy movie days are good. I loved reading your text and the images are fascinating. Love that first one.

Roman Holiday really jumped out of your post for me. Haven’t seen that in years!
– Shame about the weather. It’s misery here, too.
ciao! roman holiday is a favourite. seems as if the seasons are out of order…allowing for much polite conversation 🙂 that can be a good thing as well. do hope the sun shines on your end soon.

That’s the best shot of rain coming down over a city at night time!
ciao! thanks:) i find the rain has its unique beauty as well, and seeing it through city lights does make an almost ‘impressionistic’ look.
