I've been here all of two weeks (give or take a few hours) and I have come to one conclusion: The weather has multi-personality disorder in this country and I will prove it.
When I arrived I was told its summer only to be greeted by confused looking raindrops at the airport but I didn't say a thing; we drove to my new apartment and then it actually cleared up, I saw the sun and a few white puffy clouds...so far so good I guess. Then night came (at about 9.30 the sun set - this is apparently only weird to Africans) and I went for a drink in the town only to be assaulted by large hail stones and rain with an attitude problem...all within the span of 6hours of my arrival.
Since then its been a wait and see kind of attitude with the weather; carry a jacket in your bag and such like things...and its still summer. On only two days since I've been here have I seen the sun fully and it was a weekend, a glorious I daresay hot weekend...no sweaters or jackets all day and night....
So please, understand me when I say the Dutch weather is schizophrenic, and I do so miss the African sun...
