Winter is on its way...

It has been rather refreshing so far, coming from the cold Northern Hemisphere just a little over a month ago. But it seems slowly & unknowingly, winter is approaching the South.

For people who has never been to Africa/South Africa. One may think that SA only has summer all-year-round. BUZZZZZ! Wrong answer! South Africa is nowhere close to the Equator, therefore cannot have summer all-year-round. Since, it's seasons are opposite to that of the North, i.e Summer in the North = Winter in the South. I'm feeling the cold!

I've just came from a 3 months freezing period in Taiwan, and now it will be winter in South Africa. Ok, maybe I'm getting ahead of myself... after all, it's only May. Winter don't start until June. Point is, I just came from cold climate, but I'm pretty adjusted to the warm weather, and now more cold weather... not cool (no pun intended!). Things certainly don't help when the change-of-the-season rain has seem to start. Another issue is that due to the limitation of luggage weight, I had to abandon 90% of all my winter clothes... So until my folks make their way down South, I shall be in semi-summer, autumn outfits for the time being. I just hope that it won't be an early winter, and they can arrive before the winter...
