Yesterday was very humid and cloudy, the hot monsoon is back. Suddenly some clouds seemed incredibly low, seen from the balcony, they were surprising.
Hier le temps etait humide et nuageux, la mousson chaude est de retour.
Soudain certains nuages semblerent incroyablement bas, vus de notre balcon, ils etaient etonnants.
From the dining room, we had also a great view of coming clouds.
De la salle a manger aussi, nous avions une superbe vue sur les arrivees de nuages.
Ils semblaient ruisseler de la colline comme une cascade. / They seemed to run down the hill like a water fall.
It looked like smoke or vapors of water.On aurait dit de la fumee ou des vapeurs d'eau.
It stopped suddenly before reaching us, then the clouds became black and rain poured down, a real shower.
Les nuages s'arreterent soudain avant de nous atteindrem puis ils devinrent tout noirs et une pluie battante tomba, un vrai rideau d'eau.

Cotton trees are blooming. They have no leaves, their dark trunk and dark branches suddenly bear lovely big thick red flowers, but they are so high that my camera cannot zoom close enough to make nice photos.
Les cotonniers sont en fleurs. Ils sont nus, sans feuilles, leur tronc noir et leurs branches sombres portent desormais de grosses fleurs rouges epaisses,
mais ils sont si hauts que mon appareil photo ne peut zoomer suffisamment pour prendre de belles photos.
No need to buy flowers while the cotton trees are blooming, I just pick the fallen ones on the ground. People watch me and seem surprised so I have to explain : " N'go hai wa ga" (I am a painter).
Pas la peine d'acheter des fleurs pendant la floraison des cotonniers, je me contente de ramasser les fleurs tombees. Les gens me regardent avec surprise, alors j'explique : "N'go hai wa ga" (Je suis peintre).
One street cleaner holding her bamboo broom smiled, and told me "Me too". At the petrol station they told me to come in and to pick up the nicest of the fallen flowers, and at the supermarket parking they waved to me showing the fallen flowers, which I gratefully picked up, followed by reluctant Kai Phong.

Une balayeuse des rues tenant son balai en bambou m'a souri et dit : "Moi aussi, je suis peintre". A la station service ils m'ont dit d'entrer et de ramasser les plus belles fleurs tombees, au parking du supermarche, ils m'ont fait signe de ramasser chez eux aussi, ce que j'ai fait suivie par une Kai Phong reticente.
Cotton trees flowers don't last long, two or three days, a lot of ants and little bugs come out of them, because they have a sweet nectar, that birds love too. I must hurry to paint them, otherwise just go and pick up some more. Here is the result.
Les fleurs de cotonnier ne durent pas longtemps, deux ou trois jours, elles contiennent toutes sortes de fourmis et petits insectes car elles ont un nectar sucre que les oiseaux aiment aussi beaucoup. Je dois les peindre vite, ou aller en ramasser de nouvelles. Voici plus haut le resultat.
