Monsoon season

I used to dread the monsoon season until I went to Mumbai .

Never looked at rain the same way again after that .

Still most Malaysians will immediately feel a bit under the weather when the skies pour down mercilessly and ruin our shoes through and through . We will grumble and mutter and should we be caught in the midst of dining out in the open , we will run helter skelter and take our plates with us to the nearest sheltered place possible .

Guess the rain came too quick today .

The irony of our flag twisted above the motley of abandoned tables is not lost on me .....

Not only did it rain cats and dogs yesterday ....

Not only did it rain cats and dogs yesterday , it also rained ostriches and giraffes too .

Of course , we can joke about it now , but at that moment it felt as if a tree trunk could fall into our path at any moment .
