Rainy season?

So we are now in Southern Nicaragua on the coast, in a town called San Juan del Sur. We were aware that the rainy season was approaching, so I was wary about how much rain we would get and how crappy things would be. About 1 week ago we were in Granada, and it did rain a few days at night. I mean, torrential rain. But when it rains at night it´s not so bad, plus it cooled things off. But this past week since Sunday it has rained a lot. Everyday, and for the past couple of days, most of the day...And now we are in the middle of Tropical Storm Alma!!

What makes it worse is that our friends Gavin and Lilly are visiting...And it´s just raining and raining! Normally we would just chill and wait out the storm. We want to do things and show them around, but there´s not much to do besides surf here. And we can´t do that in a tropical storm! Our initial plan was to leave here this morning, but all the buses stopped running because the roads flooded. It might not even look good tomorrow for us to leave here, or take a surfing lesson...We shall see...
