Ravino Gardens, Forio

Afternoon Ischia followers everywhere! We've got a much colder, darker day than we had yesterday and despite my assertion that there would be no rain for the forseeable future we had a huge downpour and storm this morning! The wind from that storm is still around but the rain was only short-lived and left some clouds in its wake. The temperature right now at 2pm is 12° Celcius (54° Fahrenheit) but feeling colder with the wind chill. Tonight will be colder still, down to as little as 4°C (39°F) but the days ahead look more promising with temperatures on the rise early next week. Today's photo comes from the wonderful Ravino Gardens in Forio where amongst the amazing collection of cacti and succulents you'll find the friendly peacocks and pea-hens. Back tomorrow :-)
