Those shiny, dark patches across the width of the road are actually large pools of water, left over from all of our recent rain -- plus a little mud and animal poo -- and, they literally stretch all the way across the road in several spots.

Which means... ducking and squeezing through bushes and against walls... kind of like the trails (or "trails" as my mom would argue) that we used to find and follow when we went exploring when camping. I always knew those ducking and clambering skills would come in useful for something! Lol.
