it is pouring rain.
we've been having a heatwave for over a week, and dying without air conditioning or cloud coverage, and now... on the day everyone's supposed to be moving into their houses... this morning it was dark grey and gloomy outside, and been threatening rain the whole morning. there was fantastic thundering and everyone was anticipating the downfall. and BOOM mad rain. mad mad rain. the poor ducks! it's gorgeous and refreshing and everyone's got grins and the thunder is banging and it is absolutely delightful. and oh god - soaking wet Anthony has just come in, ahaha. the ducks are splashing and quacking and being adorable. the lake looks incredible too. i love it! the rain and the grins and the tears and the emotion of this weekend - just flowing out. we've been waiting and waiting for this and now that the monsoon is here (eek, the loo has flooded) it's absolutely wonderful. and there are kids dancing in the rain. no jokes. it's that amazing. i never, never want to leave.
(in case you hadn't noticed, these last few days will contain few proper entries, and many more sporadic oh my god moments. there's too much passion!)
