Warsaw - the hottest capital in Europe


Ok, ok. I know, Paris and Munich are hotter by a couple of degrees. But you get the idea.

Yesterday it was about 12-13 degrees - thats very warm for this time of the year. When a couple of my officemates went to Warsaw last year, it was negative 28. Negative freakin' 28! Ice cubes would have problems with that weather!

Its so warm here that I only wear 2 layers of clothes under my coat. I leave my gloves and "hat" at home, and last night I was wearing only a t-shirt and a very light jacket - the kind you'd wear in Baguio. I was walking to the office yesterday and I discovered 2 drops of sweat in my brow - ang INIT exagge! Hehehe - yabang ba?

I tell the folks here that in Manila 2 months ago, the temperature dropped from 33 deg to 27 deg. I was walking down Ayala Ave and I could see lots of people were wearing jackets. Their jaws drop whenever I say that hehehe.

But seriously, we do have great weather here now - perfect for walking around. Days are short though, at 4pm its totally dark.

Will probably walk around a bit later. Still nursing my hangover. =)
