Take out the trash day

It’s so cold today! Well that’s according to the Mozambicans. They are out in fleeces and woolly hats. It’s a mere 28 Celsius. So I am still in shorts and T shirt. This morning poured with rain, which I was very thankful to see. The Irish gal in me was screaming for rain! What a welcome sight it was.
