Well guess what we are in the middle of…that’s it: rainy season. What this means is that it is likely to rain for at least 2 minutes every day. But most days it rains A LOT for about an hour or so. The streets are not set up to drain well. You can guess what happens to this city when it rains intensly then doesn’t drain right? Oh yeah, floods. The water that floods the streets is not just rain water mixed with dirt either, there’s some sewer water mixed in too, giving the whole city a very pleasant aroma! Usually we are not that affected by the rain because we are either inside or in a vehicle but today…today was a different story.
Beautiful sunshinin-day and we head off to lunch. 5-6 minute walk. Basically right as we are just finishing up our meal BOOM lots and lots of rain, it was a combination of Forrest Gump’s classifications of rain: sideways rain, fat rain, stinging rain and rain that seemed to come from the ground up. ALL IN ONE wow. Lots of rain
We decided to sit it out but when the rain finally stopped well…you’ll see the picture.
