Rain Wreaks Havoc in Doha

Since it hardly ever rains in Doha, they have very, and I mean VERY poor drainage systems.  The average rainfall for the entire year is just under 3 inches.  Since it began raining last night we've received 0.51 inches!!!  I know this really seems like nothing in comparison to the spring rains we get in the States, but take a look at these pictures!!!  Glad school is only down the road and the kids and I can stay home today!

So sorry about the rain causing the problems but happy you did not have to be out!
Love the pictures of your Mother's Day celebration. Those veggies looked wonderful. Keep the stories and pictures coming as you can.
Love to all, A. Joyce
