Rain, rain, go away!!!!

Yes, it is the height of the rainy season! Everyday now we can expect the rain to come by 12pm or 1pm and continue on until around 11 or 12 at night. This constant rain does have a tendency to wear down parents of young, active children, but you should see how it wears down the roads! We are including one of our favorite gringo trap pictures. We have to cross in the middle of this busy street just about every day, and this is a very common sight. The depth of this "pot hole" is about 6 feet deep. The width is big enough for a large horse to sit in comfortably. As you can see the locals have a special way of making sure drivers see these pot holes until the road crew can get around to fixing them. By the way, this has been here now for over a week. So, next time you are driving down the street in your car and complaining about the state of the roads there in your city, remember, at least you don't have to worry if your car will be falling INSIDE of the pot hole!
