Berlin storms

The past 2 days have been great, warm days and very pleasant. Around 5pm, the dark grey clouds loomed over and bang, thunder, lightening and hail for 1/2 hour, then it vanished. 

In an hour, all the paths had dried up, and you wouldn't even known it had happened. 

The rhododendrons copped a beating though, and there isn't much left of them!
