It Feels Cold Here! (12/17/12)

Friday, December 14, was an unusually hot day.

Typically, daytime temps here run in the 80s (low to high 80s). On Friday, it was in the 90s; I am not sure how high the temp went, but it probably was in the high 90s. Even the Burundians considered it “hot”! The humidity was equally high, which led to a torrential and lengthy rain storm in the late afternoon.

On Saturday morning, it felt comparatively cool.

Darlene put on a sweater, and insisted I close the door and windows. She was still “cold.” I protested that it was not as hot as the day prior, but still quite warm. To support my claim, I checked the thermometer we have hanging in the hallway of our apartment: It read 76 degrees! Darlene responded: “It still feels cold to me!”
