Vaasa: Obligatory weather post

As I'm sure you've noticed, I am horrifically spoiled all the time, by which I mean I am from San Francisco, and many of us are maybe the worst people at not being in San Francisco. I could go on about this further, because I'm very long-winded, but the important thing is: weather.

Weather is a big deal to me. Bay Area natives are, per my former coworker's EMT class, high risk in severe weather by virtue of living in the Bay Area. And by severe, I mean anything below 50°F and over 70°F, because of course that's ridiculous.

Don't be fooled; this is the actual air.
It's 63°F here at the moment. Fine. It probably wasn't much warmer yesterday. Fine. But the difference between today and yesterday is something like 30% humidity. And it is, as it turns out, kind of a big deal.

Google weather says that the humidity in San Francisco right now is 100%! But it's all fog. Cheaters.

That's enough about that. Vaasa is very clean, and it would probably be very relaxing to walk around it and eat. (In an unlikely turn of events, I spotted a  Mexican restaurant in the town square earlier, and I'm extremely curious as to how good it actually is...)

Perhaps that time will come in the next three weeks. But in the meantime, I haven't eaten cheese since I got here on Monday, so apologies for any undue crankiness. There has never been a time in my life that I have wanted to bite straight into a large block of cheddar more than I have right now.
