When it Rains it Floods

Jay is always complaining about Toronto roads; they have potholes and are always under construction. He isn’t totally wrong. However, now that we have driven on Cancun roads, we have a new appreciation for our potholes and road construction. Most potholes in Toronto are annoying but not dangerous. In Cancun pothole takes on a whole new meaning.

Things get even more adventurous when it rains. The roads aren’t bowed and their sewer system isn’t exactly top notch.  This means that even small amounts of rain cause flooding! I’ve never seen such huge puddles in my entire life and it kind of fascinates me. It reminds me that there are so many little considerations in everything we do. Building a road is never as simple as just putting down some concrete.
