道路冠水/flooded road

仕事の帰り道、アパート近くの道路が冠水しているとの情報。シーロー乗り場の行列を見て、なんとかなるかと歩き出す。車道は完全に冠水、歩道も車が通るたびに波が押し寄せる。波を避けながら途中まで来たが、ついに諦め、ズボンをまくりあげ靴を脱いで、裸足で帰宅。せめてカバンにサンダルを入れておくべきだったと思っても後の祭り。

On my way back from office to home, it was said near the road of my apartment house was flooded.
But after I glanced cue of casual taxis; See-Low, I started to walk to my home. Road for vehicle was completely flooded, and on sidewalk waves of flooded water were rising up after car passing through. I tried to escape every wave on the side walk until mid-way. Finally, I took off my business shoes and rolled up my pants and then I walked through on my bear foots in flooded road.
I regretted that I had to bring sandals in my bag for such emergency time.
