Still Raining!!!

It's still raining!!! It never rains this much here. The newspaper says that this is definitely the most rain we've had in 15 (or more) years!! We usually only get rain about 2 times a year, so the city really isn't set up for this much rain! This morning Aashini and I were in a rickshaw and we had to go through HUGE areas of water! The water was coming into the rickshaw! It was crazy!! Anyway, lots of rain has been messy, but fun :)

Monsoon!!

Monsoon season in the Capital isn't as exciting as in other places in our country, but even so, we get excited about rain. We rarely get rain, so when it's monsoon season it's different and exciting :) I messed up these pictures a little and didn't have time to go back and change them, so you'll just have to see these :) Aashini LOVED the rain! She had tons of fun playing out in the rain on our balcony with her umbrella (we don't really play with the puddles on the street... you can't be sure what is in those... sewers tend to overflow in rainy season.... so playing in the puddles on our balcony is perfect!). She thought it was awesome! Since it doesn't rain here very much, the city isn't set up to handle a lot of rain, so when it rains the roads get a little crazy! One day we went to the mall when it was raining! We thought we weren't going to make it in! Monsoon is fun and keeps life even more interesting :)
