Williamstown

There was a sudden thunderstorm when I was in Williamstown. One moment it was blazing sunshine, the next it was storm. I was so frightened when the wind started and the sky began to darken, as I didn't have my umbrella with me. I rushed back to the train station and then the thunder broke. The train was a little late. Soon the station staff told us that the power was out, probably the lightning had struck some power lines. So I eventually took a ferry back to Melbourne. The next day, the TV news said that two people had been killed by the lightning that day.
