It has been playing in my brain for about 9 hours now...about as long as torrential rains have been coming down and flooding Serena Lodge. I walked to dinner with my feet in deep puddles and apart from a brief lapse in downpour about 9pm when we walked back to our room, it has been non stop rain.
So, why am I telling you this at 3am local time? I'm glad you asked!
Our room is leaking.
I woke up about half on hour ago feeling tiny splashes on my face, as did E...we turned on the lights to discover the walls above the bed lined with trickle paths from the part where the wall meets ceiling- not enough filler it seems! There's also a puddle forming by the wardrobe, I've put my bag up on the table because I don't trust the floor anymore!
We have used all the spare towels.... This could get interesting!
Anyway, even the 4-star accomodation can't handle the African rains, at least it's still warm- I just pray the ceiling fan holds out!
Oh well. After less than a week, I am not really surprised by Africa anymore :)
I'll go back to bed. Goodnight!
