Day Fourteen - Anerley Vale, SE19



Big thunderstorm on the way home tonight. I was sensible and waited in the station for it to subside, which meant I got to see these kids having fun in the huge puddle by Tesco once it had calmed down a bit.

It reminded me of when I was a kid in Port Moresby (officially the world's worst city to live in: it wasn't that bad in the early eighties) and the first rains of the wet season came. We'd be dancing around in the warm downpour, before floating toy boats down the channels the deluge made in the garden. After a week of heavy rain at 4pm every day it got less exciting though...
