The Green and the Grey

One of these days we will no longer be living in Belgium and for the record, I don't want to forget some important things, both good and not as good, about living here. 

Today it's the climate.





I've said before, the weather here was the most difficult thing to get used to.  Plenty of grey skies. Short winter days.  Long summer days.  Many cool days. Few hot days. Very, very different from where we've always lived.

Perhaps we're spoiled now or have just grown accustomed to the craving for sun and the likelihood of a soft rain.  One thing is for certain - we appreciate a sunny day and will go to great lengths to stay out in it.



Our patio has never been more used than here.



With all that grey comes a lot of green.



The lush green that only comes from a lot of rain, clouds . . .

and that occasional day of sun to make us appreciate it.
