Anyone for the wet season?

Today the heavens opened and came down with a bang!  It poured today!  Not for long but a very heavy downpour.  You just don't get this type of rain anywhere else!  It's a thick and heavy rain...still the weather stayed gorgeous and warm and we were standing in it.

The thunder and lightning that started things off was amazing.  At one stage the building actually shook and we it seemed mere metres away.  As you can imagine the poor dogs went beserk!

Here are some pics of the street just in front of the hotel during the downpour.
