Il fait beau!


On this unseasonably warm of a day, I can only think of next year. Here's the wikipedia description of Aix's climate:
"Aix-en-Provence is situated in a plain overlooking the Arc, about a mile from the right bank of the river. The city slopes gently from north to south and the Montagne Sainte-Victoire can easily be seen to the east. Aix's position in the south of France gives it a warm climate. It has an average January temperature of 5 °C (41 °F) and a July average of 22 °C (72 °F). It has an average of 300 days of sunshine and only 91 days of rain.[5] While it is partially protected from the Mistral, Aix does occasionally suffer from the cold gusty conditions it brings.

Unlike most of France which has an oceanic climate, Aix-en-Provence has a Mediterranean climate."

Caaaaan't wait. The only reason we're supposed to bring a winter coat is if things get unseasonably cold, or if we travel into the north of France during the colder months.

You know you're jealous.
