We left this afternoon for the airport in Johor Bahru.  During the ride it started pouring rain.  As the lightening flashed, I watched passengers rush on board, sloshing out of the rain.  Water dripped from their clothes and umbrella making a sea of puddles all over the bus.  Cars outside plowed through streams of water on the road, and I, thankfully still dry, listened to Michael Jackson’s Billie Jean being played over the radio as I took in my last glimpses of Malaysia.  For a while at least.
