Rainbow

As I mentioned in the previous post about two weeks before my arrival in Caracas a bridge on the highway from La Guaira (where the airport is) to Caracas collapsed. Now all arriving passengers have to take the La Carretera Vieja (The Old Highway) into the city. While the main highway vaguely resembles a modern road the old one is a very narrow and twisty mountain road. It is a prettier drive though.

Along the way a brief rain shower left a rainbow over the road. It only lasted a minute or so. Long enough for me to dig my camera out of my bag and get a shot off. It was gone a few seconds later.
