'Special Raining Price' in Phuket

My partner and I have been to Phuket numerous times. In 2007 we visited during July which is considered to be 'monsoon season'. We really enjoyed the weather at this time. It was very humid and rained every day but only for one hour max and at the same time each day. At about 3pm we would watch the dark clouds roll in and it would start puring down. By 4pm the clouds were disappearing as fast as they came in and the sun would shine again. It was really refreshing to have the downpour and an absolutely great time to go shopping. Yes, we got wet, but it was so humid that it did not matter. The markets were quiet and all of the shopkeepers wanted to give us 'special raining price'. Due to the downtime because of the rain the shops found the their customers would disappear so they treasured the ones that were brave enough to face the rain. We got some great 'special raining prices' and had a lot of fun doing it.
