The skies are grey

After weeks and weeks of 30+ degree weather, it’s starting to look a bit more like Glasgow now! The temperature has dropped and this morning I had to unpack the UGGS. Dan is still deliberating whether to break open the vacuum packed bag of jumpers before we move. {An email was sent around saying that it was still going to be another 2-3 weeks before we can move in, despite what they said last week.}

There’s been a couple days of rain and some extreme wind – to the point where it hurts because things are flying and hitting you. So I’m thankful that we arrived when we did {even if I was complaining about the heat the first couple of weeks} because it meant we got to get out and explore. I do feel a bit sorry for the people arriving now because I think the summer is well and truly over until next year.

But I’m not complaining because we have some exciting adventures coming up between now and Christmas, which will take us out of Azerbaijan. So I’m in full planning mode at the moment, which I enjoy just as much as the holiday itself.

We’ve also got some weekends in between that we’ll fill with the museums and indoor activities that we’ve been holding off on. There’s also a neat looking car race at the Crystal Hall next weekend – tickets are free so we’re going to try and grab some tomorrow.
