Road or River?

Sometimes the roads turn into rivers during the rainy season. This is the road and gate outside the elementary school. I waded through the water and made it in:)  I don't know if you had heard, but parts of Chiang Mai and the surrounding areas had very bad flooding the last week or two. It had been raining a lot and they had to release water from the dams before they broke. It took a few of our cooks 3 hours to get into work one day last week. This all happened closer to the center of the town, so most of the school staff was not affected. Some families did have to stay with people closer to the school so that they would be able to get it in to school. I am told that traffic was terrible! People were using boats, etc. The flood waters are down now and hopefully we won't have any more large storms.
