/\ beautiful photo Beebs, this is how we did it back in the good old days!
/\ flying in flip-flops, breaking so many rules ... cool suitcase and flight bag by the way Marlon
Any recommendations for the rainy season please? I don't mean the UK rainy season (wet and cold) I mean the tropical rainy season (rains solidly for at least a month but temperatures remain high). What to wear?
/\ water-repellent bucket hat, umbrella, and maybe a pair of rubber wellies, sailing boots, Bean boots, or Blunnies
special raingear will be too hot for the most part
plain old plastic poncho in a pouch in a pinch but really the umbrella is the best way
Stetson bucket hat $20 US Amazon (version without the 'gutter' on the rim) is perfectly water repellent. In a downpour it saturates, though. Dries quickly.
