Splish.

I don't really know what I'm talking about when the subject of monsoon comes up, but I do know that it's barely dripped while we've been here.  Of course we had the one heavy rain where the living room/office flooded, but other than that, the rainfall accumulation wouldn't fill a tea cup.

Yesterday I was at a welcome coffee with the women of Delhi Network and meeting some more amazing ladies, when I looked outside and saw the most wonderful of downpours.  The kind that completely washes away the dirt, the heat and even the "smell of India" for a little while.  The kind that begs to be danced in.


Pam and I decided that a little rain wouldn't hurt anyone, and continued on our merry way to do some shopping, visit the chemist for some meds, attempt to find someplace to have contact cards made (with my vital information because I'm tired of writing it down all of the time), etc.

We got S.O.A.K.E.D.  Hair dripping, shirts soppin', shoes waterlogged.



Guess what though?  It was GREAT!  It continued raining for the better part of the day. Rain, rain and more rain.  It took us 5x longer to get anywhere we needed to go, but it was still awesome!
