Hey
hey it's Saturday and this Saturday I am talking about the weather,
yes such an exciting topic but a topic none the less.
Today
it is a wet day and it was so overcast that I didn't want to get out
of bed, when it is overcast and wet I often find that I have zero
motivation to do stuff. The same can happen when it is stinking hot.
As
a child I remember watching American TV shows and having them talk
about season “fall” I used to think it was strange that in
America they had this strange and different season and wondered if
they had five seasons instead of four like we had. At some point
though I realised that fall was what we call autumn.
I
also had trouble getting my head around children having the summer of
school, here our summer holidays are 5-6 weeks long roughly, also
known as the Christmas school holidays. Also as a child I didn't get
that different countries are the opposite of us weather wise, I just
thought all countries were the same.
My grandson just got back tonight from a mission trip in Guatemala - I think it was life changing - every where is different - yet we all are the same. It is spring here - and almost summer!
ReplyDeleteWhen I was a child, I thought Australians must have glue on their feet....so they would not fall off the earth.....being the land down under.
ReplyDeleteWith the internet I'm used to seasons being different to ours. Autumn is Autumn to me not fall.
ReplyDeleteWeather is always a talking point.
Hmmm.... for a change, we have the same weather...
