Meet Maggi over at student internet and she and Magne come back for tea - until J suggests impromptu lunch with vegetable soup, Danish blue cheese and mackerel spread. They leave for supermarket and promised rain starts, violently with thunder and lightning and heavy waves lapping over the sidewalk and into the covered passageway of our building. Maggi says deep water and abandoned cars further up Gregori Afxentiou Street toward the internet. It's a spot we regularly saw flooding from our fourth floor vantage spot the year we lived in the Chryssopolis Hotel.
