Endless Summer at the Pousada da Villa



I know by reading and talking to the locals here that there really are no seasons like we have back home.  Pretty much year round highs in the 80s with lows in the 50s and 60s.  To actually experience this is an entirely different matter.  I saw feed corn dried out and ready to be harvested standing next to the green shoots of month old corn.  The banana trees in the photo have had a continuous supply of new bananas and the flowers are always blooming somewhere.  There is a rainy season but the overall annual rainfall is about 60".  All of this is relative though as the locals consider 90F "sweltering" and anything below 60F "freezing". :)
