Wet Wet Wet...

No, this post is not about the Scottish band known by the same name. It is about the severe weather that welcomed us to Zithulele just a few days after we arrived in mid-April. We were house-sitting for the hospital superintendent and his family when a huge storm dumped 278 mm of rain in 24 hours. Their house is a thatch-roof and leaked quite a bit. We snapped these photos during the deluge. It was crazy!

The water came through the thick walls in the bedroom.
 And the strong winds blew the trampoline down.
A number of small trees were also blown down.
 Water was everywhere!
