Ugh! No air conditioning!!!

In the 70’s I worked in New York City. Not being from there, the humid summers were oppressive to me the first few years. Once and awhile a “cool front” weather system would come through. The temp would drop and humidity too.

I always loved how the TV weather forecasters called it: “Good sleeping weather is coming!”. They weren’t kidding

Germany doesn’t believe in air conditioning. The windows wouldn’t even fit them. They are however very fascinated with fire. Fire is always a great crowd pleaser in Germany.

You can walk for hours (it seems) in Berlin and not see a single air conditioner. In New York City (where I am originally from), you can take one step outside and see many in the windows.

When I enter a rare air conditioned place with my wife she says right away “I know I know, air conditioning”. Then I ask “What is it with you cave people?”
