69°F/21°C on the Second Day of Winter

We couldn’t quite believe our eyes when we saw Sunday’s temperatures rise to almost 70°F – especially after the first little snow storm we had last week. Quickly, we turned our joke (“Beach Day!”) into reality, and went for a trip to Rockaway Beach. Out there, it is always cooler (windier?) than in the city, but the weather was still balmy enough to qualify for a North German Summer day ;-)
