Not much of a summer

One of the things I was really looking forward to in this trip to Germany, was the summer weather, especially with the cold SA winter. The first two days were perfect summer weather, not too hot, a slight breeze over the Rhine, sunshine, all the good things needed to enjoy the long days of summer. I was told by many that this was an anomaly this year, and the weather has been rather crappy ... And for the rest of the trip it has been - humid, intermittent rain and a lot of cloud cover. It has felt more like Cape Town winter than an European summer :(
