Long Nights and Hot Days

Relatively speaking the days are getting longer here.  When I arrived it would be dark by 6:30pm, whereas now I can expect at least another hour.  It took a while getting used to the consistent length of days.  Even though in the UK in can get dark earlier, the speed that the sun sets is much faster, taking less than 30 minutes.

 

Initially the temperature was quite tiring but I rarely wear sun lotion on my arms now.  However, over the last few weeks there has been a dramatic change in the afternoon and leaving the house after lunch I have to wear my cap.  Umbrellas are also a regular sight here for sun protection.
