At 9 I woke up to loud thunder and lightning that stuck repeatedly close by. I tried rolling over and going back to sleep with little luck. It was a heavy-duty storm raging outside. After half an hour I was way too tired and I fainted into bed, I think.
At 11 the storm was over and I went out to shop for stuff. Food, mostly and shampoo.
At 5 in the afternoon I heard thunder rolling in the distance, as if they were rolling huge stones... There were no storm clouds anywhere.
At about 7 - 8 the storm was back at full blast lightning struck every 5 seconds or so, it was awesome. All that raw power...!
So I tried to make a few pictures. Sadly, my camera is not one of those wonder where you press the shutter and it instantly takes the picture, it takes it about 1-2 seconds to get moving, therefore I just randomly pressed the button and got a few pretty pictures. The best picture should have been a double-lightning, but it is completely out of focus. Just my luck.
Suffice to say my camera suddenly announced that the batteries were dead and it shut down on me.
But as it was time to sleep (my shift started at 7 AM) so I went to sleep and fell alseep to the sound of thunder.
It was the most awesome day ever!
