It's supposed to be the rainy season here, but despite the google weather gadget telling me that it's been stormily raining for the last week here in Phnom Penh we have only seen a brief shower similar to that seen at wimbledon, which lasted about 5 minutes. It has in fact been incredibly hot and sunny ... about 94 degrees but unbelievably humid which is not fun when you are teaching 36 small children in a windowless garage.
Every day we have been drinking 5 litres of water each minimum and waiting for a storm to arrive to ease the pressure; today was almost unbearable, every one of us just pouring with seat, even the locals.... but tonight it rained.
And boy did it rain!
The street was like a river running past the door, thunder rumbled, lightening flashed, all the lizards came inside, and the air is suddenly bearable.
I wonder if the "cool" air will last until tomorrow!
