I think we do get a few days in December at that temperature - you will just have to come and have a holiday here in December to find out :>)Alden Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06601028197387499096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3209493946963010404.post-71295220193620950002016-06-08T00:07:16.840+12:002016-06-08T00:07:16.840+12:00To tease you: we have also a north easterly but 27...To tease you: we have also a north easterly but 27 degree C.

The house we were staying in had fantastic views of the fiord which was quite protected but we never once saw anyone sailing or kayaking.
