Okay, now I understand

by XRS

Okay, now I understand about this “rainy season” thing. It's been raining hard since about 11PM last night, and looks to keep dumping on us all day. This explains the 2-foot deep ditches beside all the roads.

Bad news! Now they've delayed the first possible launch date to July 6. That rots. Something about swapping out the nozzle at the bottom of the 3rd stage rocket. Well, since I'll be strapped to that stage, I guess I'd rather play it safe. Still, it's just that much more rain to wait through. Not that it rains in my clean room, but still. Depressing.
