What happened to spring?

The weather has worsened since yesterday in Tirana and it will be bad for the rest of this week. It got cooler, and the temperature ranges between mid 40’s to mid 50’s. The Dajti Mountain chain this morning displayed white peaks with quite a bit of snow!   

Local news indicate that some tourists have been stuck in the north where the snow was heavy, and power lines have crashed; and even the foreign press mentions related problems.

Here the rain is light, but steady, and the Lana Canal water level has risen. After returning from an appointment to my comfortable apartment I decided this is the perfect time to sip a cup of steaming, home brewed ‘salep’ while catching up with my email and looking out of my glass wall! Really cozy and delicious intake!
