I think tourists hate rain and probably lots of other people as well.
For me, growing lots of fruits and vegetables, I realize that rain is an important part of getting a good yield.
So I welcome the rain to keep things green and growing.
Just to be clear? I never said I want it to rain so much that is floods all over Thailand.
Just enough to keep the garden green will be just fine!
People in Thailand are all use to dealing with the rainy season.
It is part of life every year and each person must learn how to deal with it.
