you should tell them of snow
Reminds me. Back in my senior year of high school we had a few foreign exchange students. 1 from Germany, 1 from Africa (I forget which country), and a couple from China. The girl from Africa, being her first year in Wyoming (and at altitude) had enjoyed her first summer here. Fall was coming on quickly, and the change in Laramie weather was brought up (it can be a white out blizzard 1 day, 2 days later it feels like spring or even summer), and the topic of rain was brought up. The girl from Africa stated she loved the rain. We told her that rain here is always cold, even in the summer. She was like "whatever". And then it rained. And then 2 weeks later, it dropped to the 50s (spring/fall weather for Laramie). And she was like "OK, you guys win. Turn off the cold now." We laughed, as we stood around in our shorts and t-shirts while she was wearing a heavy winter coat. And it hadn't even snowed yet.
LOL the joys of travling you get to learn something you take for granted back all over again. The simple idea of weather living in one place you are like your own weather person move and your all like HELL WTF MATE!!!! WHAT IS THIS MONSTROSITY
