No place to hide
Update the grocery store was 4 miles away, and it started pouring rain as we walked there. So a short Uber ride later and we are at a great burrito place having dinner and drying out. Come to find out that was just a glancing blow cause after dinner we walk the rest of the way to the grocery store and got what we needed. Starts raining again harder while we’re inside. We call Uber to take us back to the boat. Well technically it’s to take us back to the dinghy so Steve can tow us back to the boat. The Uber gets lost getting to us. And is delayed like 10 mins. No big deal until we get to the dinghy. We jump in and Steve starts to row like mad we can see it coming the next wave of rain. Fiercer than the others. We’re half way to the boat when it hits. The upside was I was pretty sweaty from the walk now all that was washed off. Once on the boat we dove into the cabin but we were so soaked the first thing we had to do was strip down and put our wet clothes in a bucket to keep the whole cabin of the boat from getting soaked. We are still waiting for it to stop raining so we can dry out our clothes. Go they said. It’ll be fun they said. HA!
