Earlier in the week we had rainy weather, courtesy of a cyclone blowing up from Sri Lanka.   That storm brought strong winds blowing from the south. 

The door on our top balcony faces south and suffers from the same endemic lack of quality as everything here. The result was an indoor waterfall. The rain came in around the door, ran across the third floor landing and then cascaded down to the ground floor, pooling at the foot of the stairs. As all our floors a marble, it became extremely difficult to walk. Max was screaming because he slipped and fell on his head.

The door was installed incorrectly.  When the wind drives the rain against the door, the water runs into the house.  I need to find a carpenter who can replace the door (it is warped) and redo the door jams as that the rain will run off to the outside.  Otherwise we have this to look forward to each time it rains.
