The last week in March the weather here was amazing! The high was in the mid-60's which we found out is like "mid-July bring out the shorts and tank tops" weather for here. People were sitting outside their houses playing music and chatting, and our quiet Botanic Garden walk turned into seeing hundreds of people on the lawn in said summer attire visiting an ice cream truck parked nearby. Seriously, I was beginning to think, warmer weather is here and it will only get better! Our Northern Irish friends warned us of impending nasty weather because of the unusually beautiful days we experienced. We hoped they were just being pessimistic...
Then it sleeted. A whole day. Temps were 30 something. All day. Our friends were, unfortunately, right.
The weather has gotten better since then, but still hasn't gotten quite as nice as the last week in March.
Even so, April has brought everything into full bloom! I especially love the tulips! Here are a few pics of Spring in this crazy weather place :)
