The weather has been pretty odd this year. We have had some really heavy rain causing flooding (see also blog entry from August 4th) and then suddenly some very sunny days. Yesterday, Saturday October 14th, was one of those sunny days. And it got warm enough to motivate me to get into the pool!

The pool was quite pleasant at 23.7C (74.66F) and my first swim was therefore a very good experience. If you remember, last year we did not get to go into the pool until the end of October, and even then the pool was a couple of degrees Celcius colder. It is amazing how much difference two degrees makes in pooltemperature.

And today … well, of course, it is raining again! We will see what happens by the time we get into the real rainy season in December/January! At least the weather is predicted to stay above 20C (68F) for days to come.
