Sleeping in the bows of a Kerala Houseboat
Went to sleep in the evening in the bows of the boat underneath the moon on a lovely warm evening. I woke in the darkness to a tremendous roaring and before I was wide awake a tremendous rain shower crossed over the houseboat soaking me.
I leapt up, dragged out a rain cover and then returned to sleep. By which time of course the rain had passed over and it was suddenly a little cold. Awoke next morning quite happy.
