I see. I see.
Flood. Cool. I remember there once was a flood at my aunt's place. Everyone got exited, especially the kids because swimming pools were not so accessible then. So the idea of wading in murky 'teh tarik' water was inviting.
I was still in a nostalgic mood when reality struck me.
Ada not being in school meant that Gooly has no transport home. And papah was away (again). And taxis were neither coming in nor going out of the school area.
Aiyaya.. that could only mean one thing.
I have to brave the storm to rescue my son from school (for drama and comedy effect).
I really didn't know what to expect. Some say the water level was knee high, some say it was waist high. I suppose it depends on height, which means the water was probably ONLY at my ankle. *ahem*
First sight of water. Not too bad. Clear water. I bet there were fishes. Note how dainty my feet are?
And then.. it got deeper. But I was walking on the pavement. So it was okay. I don't know why that dungu fella was desperate to get into the Shell Kiosk. Probably so that he could appear in my pictures. Dang! I fell into his trap!
Petrol, anyone?Reached school
Yipee! Water! Water!
The deepest was probably around his knee. I had to roll up his pants when crossing the river path.
There! I was right! Fishy~ albeit dead. Dinner was Fried Rice with Anchovy (note: no plural here)We got home after ..uhm.. gee.. I forgot to check the time. I was busy rehearsing my delayed weather broadcast for you people, you see.
But! When we got home, I was so darn tired that I wished it wouldn't rain for the next 100 years. (If every of my wish comes true, I'd have been a millionyeir last Sunday - lottery day. So don't worry about drought in Bangkok, k?)
Sigh! It's so rainy these days that a water-proof poncho is a must. This style makes him look like Chickedee, minus the wattles. I like.Rain rain, go away, won't ya? Ok.. come.. but not so much, ya?
