Double rainbow

As sunset was approaching today, I saw my first tropical rainbow:

You can barely tell from the picture, but it was a double rainbow. The second photo shows the second rainbow a bit more clearly.

What surprised me most was the colour. It's mostly pink (or red & orange).  I'm used to rainbows that show a more complete colour spectrum. 

I was also intrigued by the arc. It's fairly steep, compared to rainbows further north. I'm at 8 degrees south right now. Most of the time, I'm around 48 degrees north.

The rest of my day was quiet. I went up to Jatiluwih to download some books on iTunes, then read one. Most of the men in my class has been busy with a local death & cremation, so I cancelled class today. 

Tomorrow, it's back to normal.
