My Love's Coming Down Like ...

Today we've had the most amazing thunder and lightning storm here in Hong Kong (I guess I can stop saying "here in Hong Kong" because it's pretty obvious by now). It's weird for it to be hot and rainy at the same time. Maybe people in the South are accustomed to this, but I find myself asking - do I wear a coat? On Tuesday I opted for a light jacket. I only ran outside for a few minutes to grab some lunch and nearly died from heatstroke. It was the strangest feeling to be soaked from the outside of my clothes (the rain) and also soaked from the inside of my clothes (sweat!).

When I finally made it back into the office I threw off my coat and then proceeded to freeze from being wet with all the air conditioning. There must be a trick to how to dress right in this kind of weather. I look outside and the answer seems to be no jacket, umbrella optional. No umbrella doesn't seem to make a whole lot of sense either, but maybe I'll try it.

So the best part is that I get to hop on a plane in a few hours and fly to Singapore. With every rumble of thunder, I get a little more excited for the flight. I'll try to take some pictures while I'm there since I've never been there before. All I know is that chewing gum is illegal. All the rest will be a surprise.
