Holy Humidity Batman!

Dear Batumi,

The humidity is really getting to me.  If you could do anything about that, I would much appreciate it. 

Yours Truly, 
Krissi



Within the last week or so, the humidity of Batumi has escalated suddenly.  Everyone has been saying, "it's always humid in Batumi."  Well I feel like it has come out of no where.  Don't get me wrong, I love the warm weather.  I don't want to get back into a Georgian winter at all.  I just wish that I got eased into it a little better.  Well that's life!

The current weather of Batumi:
70 degrees F :)
83% humidity :(

This is now what I have to look forward to:
Cons
- Not having AC at home or school.  I heard that schools turn into a heat box once the weather gets nice.  It hasn't been too bad yet but we've still got one month to go.
-Having to be inside on really nice days because of school :(  Well that's life as a teacher. Ha
-Becoming drenched in sweat from just walking down the street.... it's not that bad yet but I'm sure it's going to happen.  eek.
-Being unable to wear tank tops and shorts all the time. (Another downside to being a teacher)
Pros
-The warm weather is hereeeeeeee!
-Now I get to add Beach Days into my already busy schedule! I can definitely rearrange things for that! :)
-On those Beach Days, I can finally go in the Black Sea without freezing immediately into a popsicle.
-Now that it's nicer weather, everything will be open.  Since Batumi is more of a tourist city, most things are generally closed during the winter, but now they are opening everything up.
-We can now sit outside at bars and cafes.
-Lots of dolphin watching coming in my future.
-Sandals!  Feet, be free.

To sum up: Batumi is now hot and humid.  Life is wonderful.  End of story.

Until next time. Adventure is out there.
