flood day

i had something specific to write about... but too much rice has made me forget.

one... ah yes, the rain we got on monday.. absolutely ridiculous! i was sitting in my room, every so often the lights would flicker but nothing much... then BANG!!! i've never been so intimidated by a thunderclap ever! on my way to the orphanage the next day, frig... it was like a tsunami came through because there was flooding everywhere. shin high/knee high water and people were still just going about their day, riding along through this mess. i knew it was monsoon season (once i got here, i thought it ended in september)... but i didn't know the extent of it.



i couldn't imagine dealing with flooding like this consistantly. i didn't think they had sewers because the water wasn't going anywhere... but i noticed sewers today and they were actually overflowing... craziness.
