Could this be it, the end of the rains?
Last weekend a great flood in our neighborhood, a day confined to home with two feet of dirty water in the streets, local kids swimming happily in the sewage. Dek Sa-lum, says Auntie Porn, our Isan cleaning lady.
Now this week the days feeling cooler in the morning, no more than a few weak drops of rain in the late afternoon. It just feels different. Notice the wind heading from the west to east, then changing to the north, this was the beginning of the different feel. Dah says that winter has come. (Though the night temperature of close to thirty is still a little warm for this fahlang.)
