A rainy day

Yesterday, it rained the entire day. Right from the morning till late at night. I would say that it was the wettest and gloomiest day I have ever experienced since I arrived in Denmark. Raindrops poured down onto the ground as if it is never ending. The winds blew in all directions as if looking someplace to hide. There was no sun. Dark clouds covered the sky like an extremely large piece of blanket. It was cold.

ON my way to the gym, i saw the leaves scattered all over the ground. Leaves of brown and yellow. The trees are almost bare. On the ground, the sand is now wet with rain water. Leaves are strewn all over the ground. People on the streets dress themselves with thick jackets, scarves, gloves and hats.

It is only autumn now, and yet, there are signs of winter everywhere. Temperature ranges from 5 degrees to at most 15 degrees now.

With this environmental change, my journey towards experiencing a full winter is about to begin.....
