Today (during homeschooling), we discovered some interesting things about the weather (us Brits just LOVE the weather).
You know we always say that it´s always raining in England? Well....
In Belo Horizonte the average rainfall each month varies between 1.5cm and 32 cm
In Norwich the average rainfall each month varies a little around 0.5cm
Isn´t that crazy? Even in our dry season we get more rain here than in the UK. Which explains why every time my Mum told Josiah and Gideon it was pouring with rain, they responded that no it wasn´t really raining. Although, I do know from living in UK most of my life that persistent drizzle is pretty annoying, I´d much rather have an infrequent blast of real Brazilian rain.
