When I got out of the plane , I found that there was a sight drizzle. It lasted all day and all next day. Yet at least a dozen people explained to me in those two days that it never rained in Lima. But that was not all what they meant, it never — absolutely never-гained in Lima. They had пo seasons heге; winter or summer made no difference; the temperature never changed; it was always rather warm and always cloudy;B the sun never shone and it never rained. At the end of the second day I asked one of my friends if there was not any contradiction between what the people of Lima said and the fact that it had never stopped raining since my arrival. He was puzzled: "Rain? What do you mean? Where?" It was quite clear that one of us was mad. I hoped it was he. I went into meteorological detail in the hope that he, too, had noticed the rain. At last he understood what I meant and he began to laugh: "But that's not rain..." "It's very strange," I replied, "but I'll take your word for it. It's not rain." "Really it isn't, " my friend exclaimed. "It's humidity." The humidity, it was explained to me, is usually around 95 percent in Lima, and is often higher. But before I had time to study the subjeеct and find out when rain is not rain, I got the most terrible lumbago of my life. I had lived twenty years in Britain, the classical centre of rheumatism, without feeling even a twinge, but now I was out of action for days.My sympathetic friends gave me advice and offered various medicines. At last it helped: modern science as well as Indian magic.
