The Geminid meteor shower peaks today, like 🍋 the scent of the season, written in gentle Italian Il mio diario 🇮🇹– In attesa delle stelle cadenti (Waiting for shooting stars)

Yesterday, when I opened Facebook, information about the Geminid meteor shower appeared.
When I shared it in our group LINE with my daughters, it seems my 9-year-old grandchild was already saying, 'I heard you can see the Geminid meteor shower tomorrow.'

Tomorrow I will be working as a taxi driver from late afternoon until late at night.

Ma spero di riuscire a vedere qualche stella cadente tornando a casa dal lavoro.
But I hope I can see some shooting stars on my way home from work.

Even though it was pouring rain from the morning today

When I looked up at the sky a little while ago, there were a few stars twinkling.

I saw in the weather forecast that it would clear up around 9 PM, so... I wonder if I might be able to see a few on my way home.

Well, time to get back to work.
