The waves and weather over the past week had left us in a state of bliss. After 3 days of perfect surf and beautiful sunsets, I was left in awe. What I’ve come to realize out here however, is that when everything seems to good to be true….it probably is!
Out of nowhere, ominous clouds engulfed sunny skies, and an hour later, the bay was attacked by a massive monsoon. Combined with a large high tide, it caused a storm surge the likes of which I have never seen before. Ross and I, cooped up inside while lightening, thunder, and gale force winds battered the lodge.
We watched in dismay as the monsoon repeatedly stabbed daggers of salt water in to the hearts of the plants and my dreams for a flourishing garden. The storm unloaded its fury for 3 days straight before finally letting go of it’s grasp on the bay. Even with deep trenches dug out, the entire garden was flooded with salt water, destroyed by the wrath of the Mighty Monsoon.
Hey buddy, it's Rob. Looks like Indo has been a blast, minus the Monsoon. Glad to hear you're alright and well. Looking forward to more blogs. Later homeslice!
