Floods!

We had a terrible thunderstorm all night long and woke up to the inevitable flooding that follows a rain storm here. Looked more like Venice! As I took M to work the local Hi-Mart was flooded out and staff were trying to "sweep" the water out the main door. Most side roads were flooded and my husband told me that school was like an island in the middle of a lake and they rigged up pontoons for cars to drive up to with "gangplanks" for kids to get from parents cars to the school entrance without getting their feet wet!

This photo is just outside our compound. There are two "humps" in the road but they were completely submerged!
