To start, I’ll compare the weather in the morning with that in the afternoon:
I was actually out walking in that monsoon, albeit not far from mum and dad’s place. I hurried back, but not before my legs and feet (and shoes) were drenched. Today was not a day for walking, today was a dad for the malls.
On the way to the bus stop a bit later, I made a friend:
What you say? The video may explain a bit better.
Although their lifespans are tragically short anyway, it saddened me to think the rainstorm may have been his eventual downfall. I fixed his wing as best I could and put him in a tree. Hopefully he’s out there chirping right now 🙂
So we went to the new Charlestown Square mall, which is…. very big! I did some shopping (see the subject for a hint as to one of my purchases) and took dad to this place:

After Charlestown we stopped by Garden City (yes, 2 malls in one day) for groceries, and then the afternoon was more than a little bit of this:
Interspersed with a lot of this:
And culminating in this:
The rain is supposed to be around for a few days, which is frustrating because I have a few crazy walks planned.
Buy hey – maybe it means I will be able to actually relax on my vacation!
