When it rains here is Zihua, it floods. There isn’t adequate drainage. Well let me clarify some of the streets drain fine and others fill up to the point the look like small rivers or large creeks.
Tarzan goes to school in Ixtapa and it is about 15 min. from our house. It was raining and the streets where filling about at a steady pace, but I got him to school without any problems. On the way back home I needed to stop at the market and the rain had stopped completely so I was relieved that I would be able to go to the market and not have to worry about parking or whatnot. Well were I would normally turn left, I had to take a right by the ways of bad luck. There was a manhole spooking water out of it, it looked like a fucking water fountain. So by taking this right I might as well have turned into a river. And I continued up this road for quiet awhile because my car was still running and I was hoping that I would come out of the water. As I looked ahead there seemed to be cars just randomly parked so I took this as a seriously bad sign, so I popped the car in reverse and parked the motherfucker on the sidewalk. Then I had to truck my extra prego self threw knee deep shit water for more then a mile, to get to the market and then home.
After a couple of hours of it not raining, I had to walk back and hope to god that the car turned over, and it did. The passenger side of the car had about 3 inches of water in it. The kind of luck that car has been having, this was a relieve.
More about my car. While I was in the states, someone ran into the backside of the car. The kids at Sr. Frogs broke the windshield, I feel like something else happened, but I can't remember at the moment, and then when I got back the fucking thing got stolen. Poor Car.
Let me make a clarification, when I say shit water, I mean shit water. Half of the population of the community lives out in the mountains, and they don’t have modern type pluming. So when it rains it cleans up the mountains loose waste like piss and shit. So it really is shit water.
