There is a saying in England which goes; ‘the rain in Spain falls mainly on the plain'. I can tell you now that it is a lie. The rain in Spain seems to (1) mostly on me. I am (2) a year in Galicia and, although it is certainly a beautiful part of the world, I think it rains more than in England. And that is pretty impressive.
There are no plains here. It is a coastal area, and (3) and storms get pushed in from over the ocean with force. Right now there is a (4) flashing and crashing above my head. I have three umbrellas: Two big ones and a little one which I keep on me at all times, just in case. Believe me when I tell you that this is not excessive.
The problem is that very often, umbrellas are not much help. The (5) pushes the rain until it is almost horizontal, and the best umbrella in the world becomes useless. And so, often I arrive at work with a (6) head and shoulders protected by my umbrella, but with (7) feet and legs. The rain falls hard and fast, and there is no escaping it. I am seriously considering investing in some plastic trousers.
When people from England think of Spain, they imagine beaches and (8) . Those things are a world away from my (9) here in Galicia. But I'm not complaining. It's because of all this rain that the countryside here is so green and beautiful. There are beautiful beaches here in Galicia, although there probably isn't anybody (10) on them at the moment.
