it rained soooooooohoooooo much today. its been my dream to see a real flood and to swim in it. After lunch we walked out of the members house and the water was up to our knees. Mom dont read this next part.
I took off my shoes and socks and rolled up my pants. We waded all the way home in the pouring rain. I caught a few frogs and diseases but thats about it. haha jk about the diseases. Well ya The highlight was the 4 of us were walkign and we saw a car that died. We ran to help the man that was pushing his car in the flood. My buddy was running behind me and he yelled (translation) "Let us go and help that brother!" haha as he finished that sentence he disappeared. HE fell into a hole. The hole literally ate him. It was up to his chest and he fell perfectly in the middle. HE didnt hurt himself thank goodness but the man saw and i didnt. I got to the car and started to help and he said "what are u crazy? go and help your friend!" i turned around and saw the elder struggling to get out of that hole hahaha we all started to laugh it was funny. I took some pics later that day but the water level went down alot....
K mom u can start reading again ha
