Afternoon all. After a bank holiday start to the week we're rapidly coming towards the weekend and things are gradually warming up here in Ischia. We've got another nice, sunny day and from where I'm sitting I can't see any clouds. The stiff wind we had yesterday has also fizzled out leaving us with a warmer feeling and the temperature right now at 2pm is 16° Celcius (61° Fahrenheit). We're still experiencing some cold evenings, tonight's minimum for example will be 7°C (45°F) but next week looks like it'll be a bit more seasonal, particularly at night time. For today's photo I've chosen the beautiful wisteria (glicine in Italian) plant which has started to bloom all over the island. Its beautiful, jasmine-like aroma filling the air with spring joy. Back tomorrow, ciao :-)
