在冰島 聽故事和說故事

今天在冰島是"夏日第一天"
原來有這個節日

天氣很好"看起來"很夏天
但是-2度 chill wind day
是所謂冰島人口中的"window weather"
走在藍天陽光下的確冷得發抖

古老的維京人只有夏天跟冬天兩個季節
The first Thursday after the 18th of each April is Sumardagurinn Fyrsti, or
the first day of summer. It is a public holiday in Iceland and hails from the
old Norse calendar, which only had two seasons: the cold, dark one and the
warm, light one. Sumardagurinn Fyrsti falls on the first day of the Norse
month called Harpa. We are now, therefore, entering everyone’s favourite
half of the year – despite the fact that today is particularly chilly all
over Iceland.

If the winter and the summer “freeze together”, as they did all over the
country last night, it is considered a very good omen for a beautiful, dry
and warm summer to come.

街上幾乎都是父母牽著小朋友走來走去

沒參與到任何活動
但一個人坐在咖啡店裡
享受灑進室內的陽光的window weather
觀察週遭的人窗外走動的人
三壺=六杯 barabara fruit tea + chocolate muffin
終於暢行無阻wireless

期末考準備ing

It's my first day of summer in Iceland.
"Gleðilegt sumar!" :]

-----
"Gleðilegt sumar!"="Happy Summer!"
This is often followed by "Takk fyrir veturinn.", "Thanks for the winter."
