Berkeley Weather

Our weather has been very strange this week. Take a look at what it looked like around 9:00 a.m. on Tuesday on Berkeley’s University Avenue, looking at the fog-covered Berkeley Hills-- a day as cold as a winter day! The other picture was taken this morning at around 11:00 a.m., returning from a meeting on Campus. This is Alumni House’s backyard, which is one of my most favorite, peaceful places on Campus. I often go to meetings at the Alumni House, and as I sit there somewhat bored with the meeting (don't tell anyone!), I look out the window at these trees and these benches and the occasional squirrels running around, and I feel better!

Berkeley is beautiful in so many ways! Maybe I am biased because it is my birthplace, but no where else in the world do you feel like you're in a city that is very special...

I wish I was as lucky as you and could enjoy my morning tea in Berkeley weather every day.

Yes, Assal Jan. I am lucky in more ways than one! Berkeley's weather this week reminded me of something my British friend, Garry said when I was doing a project in the UK. He said that contrary to common belief, there is nothing wrong with the weather in Britain; the only problem is that "we have so much of it! Sunny, windy, cloudy, and rainy all on the same day!"
