March comes in like a lion

You know that saying? Well, it never made much sense to me, but now it does. In France they call it La Giboulée de Mars. Pretty much, when you get up in the morning, you have no idea what the weather is going to be like. That is because it constantly changes. If there is a twenty percent chance of rain, you will feel rain drops, in between two sections of absolutely beautiful sunshine. Right now, there is sunshine streaming in my window as I get ready to leave for the day. However, there will be at least two or three times today where clouds cover the sun and the rain comes down.
Happened yesterday. We went to the Eiffle Tower because the weather was just gorgeous. By the time we got there, it was cloudy and the wind was blowing. I felt a few little drops on my head before we made it to the entrance. It was a little windy climbing up, but once up, you couldn't stay still for too long, it was too cold. So. Always wear your coat and scarf.
