Sun, where did you go?
by Linda ~ May 15th, 2009. Filed under: This and That.One of the reasons I love living in Brazil is just because of the weather. The warm climate suits me perfectly!
But not in the winter.
In the winter it is cold. Cold. Cold. Did I say cold enough times? Once more?: Cold.
If there had only been snow and really warm clothes to buy I guess that would have been OK.
But no snow, and it is hard to find really good warm clothes that don’t cost you a fortune. The cold came slowly about two weeks ago and yesterday it rained all day and today it is freezing! I had to go into town today to pay some bills so I also took the opportunity to go to my favorite shop and see if they had any new warm clothes that would suit my critical taste. And they had imported clothes. Doesn’t that just say something about the clothes quality here?
Maybe it ’s just me, but I prefer European clothes in both styles and fabric. Finding anything with cotton here is difficult and more expensive, in Europe it’s normal and not necessarily more expensive. Well I managed to find a wonderful knitted imported cardigan and will now stay warm. 
Now I just need to swap the flip flops for something warmer….

where are you? We are having wonderful days…cooler air but still sunny.
Well, except for this afternoon, in came the rain. Sometimes in winter here, when the rain comes, it doesn’t stop for days….now that is a real downer! (especially with 2 dogs
I was wondering about my page? I haven’t heard from you in awhile!
