Here is a photo taken today at school when students who barrack for Geelong were delighted to have two AFL players visit the school for a football clinic. Students learned to handball and kick the footy - Australian style. It was a day of all seasons, with rain about to pour down and very windy conditions. || It was cold, not a typical spring time. The temperatute is about 2-5 C, it was raining. ||

We are finishing dry season and moving into wet. In fact last evening (March 21st) we had the first real rain.

It was wonderful to hear the rain beating down and smell the ground. It only lasted for about 10 minutes.

The temperature is basically Spring all year round though yesterday when I took these pictures it was 82 F (28C). || Last year it was 80° F (26.6 C); this year 16°F (-8.8C) Brrrrr. || [] -2 deg. C and snowy, no wind! || It's a public holiday here - Human Rights Day. This photo was taken a few minutes ago in a corner of my back yard in the late afternoon sunshine. Temperature here now is about 22deg C. || [] || It's a normal school day, so at lunchtime, students are packed in the library getting caught up on work or reading... on kindles and nooks, on phones and in print! || Today in Port of Spain, it is a little overcast, but still warm (as usual) at 31C. Outside some Form 1s practicing a dance for their class this evening. || Cloudy, high 75F (24C) low 55F (13C). || Windy - high 75F (24C) low 55 (13C) - We celebrated equinox day by making pretty flowers out of coffee filters! ||
