monsoon

I keep hearing about the heat back at home. To be here is wonderful but heat...oh heat, I miss it. Monsoon is damp and cold. Nothing like the hot, humid, gorgeous mess that is summer in Toronto. I do love it.

Pants, long sleeves and scarves are worn. Woolen blankets have been purchased for evenings. Rain comes quickly, sticks around for a half-hour to an hour and passes. This happens a few times a day, but conveniently so; we can usually assume there will be rain around 9am, 3pm, and just after dusk. Knowing this, my laundry still gets caught in the storms and is drenched a few times a day. I just leave it outside knowing it'll get there eventually. Average drying time lately is three days.
