What happens when you wake up and realise it’s a great sun outside?

If you live in Portugal, you close the drapes and stay inside because it’s probably too hot outside.

If you live in Ireland, you get dressed immediately and go outside to be a “human sunflower” and do the monthly photosynthesis… And that’s exactly what I “had to do” today…

Because, the weather is not always bad (just 90% of the time…):

Looking forward for the rain to come back tomorrow…

I guess this explains why I keep complaining about the weather here in Galway, when compared to Lisbon, my hometown…

Morning: Nice temperature and sunny. When I woke up at noon the sunlight was peeking into my room and the weather looked really nice.

Afternoon: In an attempt to enjoy the nice weather, I went out for a stroll and a visit to the farmer’s market. It’s there every Saturday and I had never checked it out, for a multitude of reasons (read: hangover). The weather quickly turned into something gray, with some wind to make things worse.

Night: Rain. It’s not pouring, it’s just that annoying rain, but it’s rain nonetheless. It makes you wet. And if you wear glasses, you won’t be able to see a thing after a couple of minutes.

Just goes to prove that you can’t plan your day according to the weather conditions in the morning…
