Who knows where we in the dry season, it could be weeks or months until the rains come. The countryside is so dry. Everything is a shade of brown or yellow. And then, all of a sudden, there are explosions of purple dotting the hills and streets. The colors always seem to me to have a Japanese quality when framed against the sky.
The jacarandas are blooming. They are harbingers of things to come and always such a welcome sight. They are just starting and will continue for maybe four to six weeks.
Then, all the petals will fall and there will pools of purple everywhere. Then the rains come... ojala!
