Wat je mee moet nemen

Weather

Summer tends to be very warm with occasional summer rain storms which clear and dry as fast as they come in. Fall and Spring can be cool one day and warm the next, so it’s best to pack layers. Winter is chilly with occasional snow so pack your coat and gloves.

Sundays

Unlike the Coasts, this part of the country tends to be a little more quiet on Sundays as many folks head to church. Many stores are closed. However, brunch is a thing here :)
