Bouldering With Germans

Strange weather persisted all day here, and even the rainbow stayed until early afternoon. I went for a run up the hill to Finestrat (ow) and then came back and tanned on my porch-in the rain. The sun never quite left but neither did the rain; small rain clouds drifted off the Puig Compana and over the valley, so that there was the odd combination of hot sun with a slight drizzle. It was very enjoyable, if not extremely odd.
The cliffs seemed to be getting the most rain, so I checked out the Orange House's bouldering room with a German couple that has been staying here as well. The bouldering room is a small shack built into the side of the hill, with a mixture of plastic and hand-made wooden holds. It has some good moves on it, but I'm missing the Munroe Family Climbing Wall. Overall a pretty relaxed day, with promises of good weather and good climbing tomorrow. The Germans and I had dinner together, they have been very friendly to me and tell hilarious stories about their travels. I've traded The Bod's left-over beer for a ride to the cliff tomorrow, and after two days off I'm excited to get back.
The Face and Crack should take note that I had left-over rice for dinner-and I barely made a dent in the left-over rice. How much did you guys make?? A note to their parents: keep them out of the kitchen.
