Adam-Eve (and females who bite)
The wet season is arriving with rain every second/third day
accompanied by thunder storms.
Last night about 7 pm I was heading into the town/village to
have dinner. The electricity was on one side of the street while the opposite
was in darkness (excepting those with generators). I ate upstairs in the café that has a single central
fluorescent light. Suddenly a swarm of moth like insects were busily hovering
around the light. We’re talking 100s of insects. And then over a period of
about 20/30 minutes they were falling on to the floor ( a few around my dinner
plate). The floor became littered with discarded pairs of wings as the insects
walked away unemcumbered of their pinions.
Wings- no wings
Suddenly the lights went off in the café and I paid my $3 in
candle light and set off for home. Now the electricity was on on the other side of the street while the
initial side was in darkness.
Left bank-right bank
Well electricity is either positive or negative and can be
directional.
I sat on my veranda looking at the distant sheet lighting, drinking
(wait for it) Ovaltine and smoking cheap cigs made by Japan Tobacco Inc ( cost
a euro). After a while I notice little sparklers moving around and after a few
minutes realized I was being treating to a magical firefly display. Would make
you believe in fairies (they do exist, don’t they)
Sometimes it’s great being somewhere different
Dark fly- firefly
