Talks about Global warming.. climate change... well me and I think a fair share of the citizens of this world, feels like its a nagged out topic which keep reoccurring. A topic that I eel human ignorance choose to ignore up until recently. But what good is it to talk about it when nothing is actually done to improve the situation? Do we use less fuel? Do we have better recycle systems? Do we use less water?

I think we are all guilty of charge here and it is not until wake up calls come along that we see the results of our bad behaviour?

Or is it so that we forgotten about the twisted springs where it was snowing in April and the Easter bunny had to put skis on to deliver the eggs? I clearly remember this and a this was back in the days in Sweden as I grew up, but to be fair that was a few years back, and no one mentioned anything about global warming back then?

So here we are sat in Spain, escaped the temperamental weather back home. Where summer reaching above 25 degrees Celsius resulted in grasping for the water hose to cool down in the over heated Nordic temperature.

But things changed....

In Spain, the land of promise of Sun Sun and more Sun! That is what the brochure said, and here I am 9 years later, and have to say so far not been asking for the money back, but this year....???? What happened??

First we were faced with water ban, no more hosing down the lawn, nor car, and if you were found doing either you would be heavily fined. Then when we finely managed to scoop out the summer wardrobe, painted toe nails ready for the sandals, not to mention the endless promises of beach party invitations waiting to happen...but...

We kept asking for rain, as we were in the bad drought and warned how we might have to cut down on showers... (can you imagine...garlic, sangria, chorizo, and humid body odur...no showers? hmmmm scary..) 

So prayers were answered indeed! Too many requests and Universe sent us an overload as its raining!!!

I can't even remember a cloud free weekend these past few months...not knowing what clothes to put on for the day, wellies, light shirt, shorts, hat..?? what should it be?

Well maybe we do not need to focus on Day D, but take this as a friendly reminder to how precious our dear mother earth is, and how we should look after her with great care, outer most care in fact, as bad karma, just might spoil your summer and you will have to fly north to find a bit of a sun tan...

Now lets ask for some Sun for Spain where she belongs and take this as lesson learned, take responsibility and do what we can to stay green!
