Light fantastic

All change! After last week's deluge of snow and freezing temperatures, the mercury rushed up to tropical temperatures this week. 9 degrees felt so swelteringly hot that off came the mittens and scarf! And whenever the weather changes so drastically, so people seem to get sick. I am no exception, and on Weds night was struck down with a cold just I was enjoying yet another bottle of Cloudy Bay Sauv Blanc over a light supper in Gardabær. 

Accompanied by the milder weather has been the sudden, but very welcome, increase in light. I am no longer walking in the dark to work which means the really dark, depressing days are finally over it seems. How many months of darkness has it been? I started complaining at the end of October, which makes it almost 4 months.

For today's, mid-Feb, light comparison:

                   Sunrise         Sunset

Reykjavik         9.27            17.55

London           7.17            17.11

Malaga            8.07            18.56
