Rainbow

We have had a very wet and rainy spell these past few weeks, although today is sunny and bright. One day last week after another day of rain and overcast, the sun broke through and a rainbow starched from Victoria Harbor to the Peak.




Most rainbows appear in an instant then quickly fade. This one lasted for nearly twenty minutes. As time passed it came closer and closer till the buildings were awash with color.





My friend Vesper who has lived in Hong Kong most of her life told me it is the first rainbow she has seen in over twenty years. She may have missed some, but they are a very rare occurrence here and we were so lucky to catch the show.
