It's always better to find the positive among all the things that not always make you happy. That's how we survive! November is also a month of change on this side. The changes are not as drastic as in Scandinavia, but they are pretty palpable. There is colder temperatures, to start with, and wind, and around 1/2 to an hour less of sunlight...or at least not as strong a light I should say. They say November will be the start of a very cold dry season (first part is cold, the second, a very hot one), so I'm curious how low the temperatures will get. Happy November ahead!Claushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06803540562431030465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6784042461030289587.post-68709578373416445752009-11-03T14:42:54.757+01:002009-11-03T14:42:54.757+01:00=Jacki,
