A Flood in Bangkok

I was in a flood!!!

I had a horrible experience!! I don't know if you heard but there were floods in Bangkok and i was in it. The rain started where i was at about 4ish and it p**sed it down. We had to go down the street to meet our taxi driver at 5. We got about half way to where we were supposed to meet him and the water got too deep. It was about half way up my shin and i was drenched. We stopped in a phone booth cos they're raised but there were lots of cockroaches and rats in it so we moved. But as the water got higher the cockroaches and rats were climbing up our legs to get out of the water so i had to sit on the edge of an ATM machine so they couldn't get to me.
Then we managed to get a shop to let us in. We were lucky that we had just been shopping and had a change of clothes. We had to stay in the shop for about 2 hours with no electricity. After that we thought f*ck it were gonna get drenched again anyway and we had to wade upto our knees to a bus that the shop staff had told us went passed our hotel. It's a shame i didn't have my camera.
