Monsoon heatwave

This is the hardest time of year to function in Cambodia. The heat and humidity wipes Susie and I out most days around 1pm. It gets a bit frustrating as where there is a will, there is precious little energy!

Unusually, the rains are also arriving in the middle of the hot season. They are a month or more early, adding some welcome relief to our day. Early rains bring the possibility of an extra rice crop for many farmers, whilst keeping our bit of grass lush and green at the Healing Home.

Room with a view - looking out from our third-floor bedroom level this evening. When the rain falls, it just saturates - drops the size of coins splashing onto our concrete city.
