20th Day in Wuhan

It's raining again. The rain wasn't really heavy but somehow the streets are filled with water that couldn't be drained off. Rushed to the bus stop to go to another high school for workshop. I did everything right, wearing short pants, not taking bags except 1, i wear shoes. In not more than 10mins walking, my shoes is already filled with water. What's worse is that there are fine sand that got into the shoes and i have to endure this till i come back after i finish my workshop. The journey to the high school encounters little obstacle beside some flooded road but the bus manage to drive through. The disappointed thing is that after arriving at the school soaking wet from top to bottom, non of the students came except 2 who help organize the workshop. Therefore we go forth on presenting our slides to the 2 person who came.

The journey back was miserable. It only took us less than 1 hour to reach the school but more than 3hours just to get back to the trainee house due to the rain. Everywhere was flooded and the water is up till knee level. Some cars even got stuck in the water while driving through it. The interesting thing that happened to us is that when our bus actually drove through the water, the water was rushing into the bus through the door. We took another super crowded bus back to somewhere near our place and we have to walk back. Its really tiring and sometimes i wonder, am i really lucky to be a Malaysian?
