Arroyo!

On our way home from school on Monday we stopped at the grocery store where it started to rain. When we went outside to get a taxi the driver said he couldn't take us anywhere because of the arroyos. Apparently the city was built without a drainage system and during heavy rains the streets turn into rivers called arroyos. Eventually the taxi driver senses my curiosity about arroyos and decides he's going to risk it










When we were driving across the biggest arroyo my feet actually got wet inside the taxi. I told the driver about it and in English he shouts, "I'm crazy!" and then in Spanish says, "That's the only English I know."
