Xalapa weather

It was nice to be back in Xalapa – I’d missed it. Something happened to the weather while we were away and it was actually warm! The Jalapenos (the good people of Xalapa) had stopped shivering and were sporting light summer clothing. People talk about the weather a lot here as it changes so much. You never know what you are going to get. Xalapa is like Wales that way. The difference is, in Wales people are ever optimistic that it will be “barbecue weather next weekend” whereas in Xalapa, people always tell you (on a warm sunny day) that “there’s a cold front coming”. Half of the time they are wrong – what is it with the pessimism? I guess they are less likely to be disappointed that way.
