Tropical Rain

One of my favorite parts of living overseas is the tropical rain.  It rained all night last night and we woke up to the sounds of a gentle rain on our tin roof.  The rain means cooler weather until the sun comes out!  It means the fires that people have started to burn their trash or grass clippings will be put out! The down side is that it put a hiccup in my morning plans.  I was going to drop the boys at a friends house while I went shopping at the local outdoor market, but... I don't go to the market on rainy days.  Last time I made the attempt the my flip flops and the mud at the market was not a good combination!  I was also planning to pick up fruit and veggies for my mother in law and brother in law, who arrive tomorrow morning.
