It is 1 pm on a Monday and I am sitting in my makeshift office (2nd bedroom) in Phuket, Thailand and it is thundering and raining outside my window. Even the ducks, swans, and fish think that it is time that the rainy season ended and the sunny skies returned to the island. What happened to the beautiful weather the high season brings?
The interesting fact is that I live in Las Vegas where we would do almost anything to have as much rain as they are experiencing here, but I went from one extreme to the other.
I now realize that although the best scenario would be to have a balance of rain and sunshine, however, because that is not a possibility, I choose sunshine over rain.
