When it rains......

I know it is the wet season, so there is going to be lots of rain but there is lots of rain and there is lots of rain and yesterday we saw LOTS OF RAIN.




During this time of the year it can rain heavily at different times during the day but after an hour or so it stops and the sun comes out and that's it for the day.

Yesterday we went down the road for a quick lunch - usually Saturday lunch is Pho but we were going to attempt to make our own Pho for lunch so we went for something else. The sky looked very black so we grabbed some umbrellas and headed off. We stopped at a cafe for lunch, very nice baguettes i will add, but within about 20 minutes down came the rain. It was torrential for the next half hour, we were going to wait it out but decided that it really hadn't subsided in the half hour so we might as well make a dash for home.


Not a good sign when you have to pick a path that is navigatable without getting your feet wet, but when we got to our street there was no way across - it was completely underwater - all in half hour I will add - so it was off with the shoes (my addidas road testing white hightops) and socks and into the water which was up to my calf - yuck but thankfully we were home to shower and dry off but i couldn't resist sending kaela and Josh back out in the rain so I could take some photos!
