Fit Flop weather

I brought two Fit Flop sandals with me in my luggage, thinking that I would be able to wear them during the warmer summer months.  And I thought May would be warm enough.  But since I got here, it has been very cold and I had to put on my boots.  Even sneakers are not good enough since the wind blows the cold into the shoes. 

Yesterday was a warm day but it was still windy and I didn't dare to wear the sandals since the wind could make it too cold for me.  But today was very warm.  The sun was very very bright and a check on the weather app on the iPhone showed a nice 20C. 

I wore my boots to the garden since it could get muddy there, but as we worked on our plot, the sun beat down on us and I could feel something familiar dripping down my back and my forehead.  For the first time since I got here, I was sweating. 

As we walked home, I could see the grass dotted with not only the hardy dandelions, the only flowers that could withstand the cold, but also many white and blue flowers.  I guess summer is really here. 

Time for my flip flops.
