Romping in the deluge that ran through an exhibit building from a short but very wet downpour!  Singapore lesson #1 – always wear shoes that can get wet and always bring an umbrella! The rain came on all of the sudden, we were in an open outdoor caged exhibit watching the birds, huddled under our umbrellas then we ran for the exhibit entrance pavilion, which was a glass enclosure.  water ran under the doors right through the center and out the other door, the ceiling showed the torrential soak! The girls enjoyed the splashing! The rain cooled off the day!   P3180156
