All good things come to an end… After two weeks filled with sunshine and mild temperatures, rain has once again made its way into the capital this weekend. And unfortunately, it’s not expected to improve in the coming days. One thing is for sure, this week, your umbrella will be your best friend.

If the prospect of a new holiday delights us, the weather puts a real damper on the lightness filling our hearts.

And just one day out of an entire week isn’t much at all.
