Here in the Philippines, there are only two seasons that we enjoy, the dry and wet season, the summer and the rainy days. That is why I sometimes envy those places where people can enjoy at least four types of seasons especially winter. I like to experience winter, making icemen and throwing ice with each other. I also like to experience spring when, as I see on pictures, the surroundings are so colorful. What season do you enjoy most?

Fall and spring are my favorite seasons. Everything is so nice and pretty during the fall. The weather is soooo nice, I love it! I really can not bare the summer heat and winter sometimes is too much for me to handle when it get's too cold. I wish fall and spirng would last longer then a few months here ( fall weather seems like it only last threw October to early late November here.)

Here in our country, season that I prefer and enjoyed more is rainy seasons than summer, since in summer it was too hot and humid. But like you, quite anticipated and like to experience spring and winter. I do like to see where flower are blooming and ice are melting in spring, as well as, like to see snow, to play with it, build a snowman and have a white Christmas on winter season. Really wish that I could go to countries having four seasons and quite experience it.

Yes, that would be quite cool, having a winter white Christmas, like what I see in the movies, snow is falling outside, and the family is inside getting warm, wearing thick clothes and gloves. I just don't know if I can stand being in snow that time because I get cold so fast. My lips get dark and my hands are swollen when it's too cold.

I am also from the Philippines and I enjoy both seasons.During summer is the time where I can go to the beaches,the theme parks,go to Baguio or Tagaytay and visit other beautiful tourist spots here in the Philippines.In rainy days, I enjoy the cozy climate,I can get a lot of sleep,the nights are cold and conducive for sleeping.I can dance under the rain if I also wanted to.So I guess,i love both seasons.
but if i will be given a chance to go abroad and experience a season,I would love to experience Autumn and Winter.In winter,I would like to built my own snow man.HAve a snow ball fight.Touch snow.It will be pretty exciting.In autumn,I would like to see the beauty of fallen leaves,just like in the pictures and in the television.

Yes, summer is fun here and I also like to go to Baguio during summer. Actually, my husband and I are already planning to go there next year on summer. I just hope that the garbage problem there is already over. I miss the beautiful Burnham Park and Mines View Park. We've never come to Tagaytay but it is one of my wishes to be there and check in on Tagaytay Highlands.

Yes, the summer is not that good sometimes because of the intense heat. Gone are the days when you can soak under the sun till ten in the morning. Nowadays, the sun is already scorching by eight am. Maybe it's because of the greenhouse effect or maybe because the places in here are so polluted already that we can't feel the real sun in the morning.

I also enjoy fall the most for different reasons.
One being it is the end of gardening and I start prepping for next years garden.
Then of course the colors of all the leaves turning.
The cool crisp air and strong breezes also are a relief from the heat and humidity.
Here's a shot of some Minnesota Fall Colors I took recently.
HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB!!~

I love the wet season a lot better than the dry one. I hate the sticky and sweaty feeling during the dry season. You sweat even if you're not moving too much during the summer days. I usually take a bath more than 5 times a day just to feel relieved of the heat. Imagine how much water I'm wasting just because of the summer days. Unlike the wet season twice is enough. A bath in the morning and before I go to sleep.

For m it's spring, and it's spring now here in Australia.But today it's still a bit cool.It's funny weather for spring, with rain even.
I just donn't like the extreme hot or cold of summer or winter.

I like the Monsoon. It rains cats and dogs here and I love it when I can play in the rain. I love the rain because it's so cool and makes the whole world go cold. Otherwise the times here are usually very hot and the rain is always welcome.

I loved the rain once when I was still a kid. I remember then that I will always cry whenever my grandmother doesn't permit me to go and play in the rain with my cousins. I just watch them through our window. But now, rain brings disaster here in our country. There are lots of landslides and many people are being killed yearly because of it. Our forests are already gone.

When I watch Discovery Channel, sometimes I am able to watch coverages of China and what I like the most is your season when there are so many colorful trees which are abloom.

I just love the very thought of a spring season,dry leaves falling from tress,cool climate,would be so colorful and cozy But in India we just have summers and winters. Summers are really hot,whereas when it rains I will not feel like going out even. So I have no other choice I find summers to be better than winters.
Cheers

There's no snow here in India. Snowing usually occurs in the northern parts of the country or some hill stations which are at a higher elevation that the ground. But for other places, it's usually rain and summer.

Well I am here in the Philippines but I enjoyed mo when it is rainy day. I don't know why but the rains help me to relax my mind and to think more clearly especially the tear drops help me feeling peace. It also makes me remeber alot of things in the passed that makes me smile. I love taking a bath in the rain. Have a nice day!

I also like the rain and whenever I hear the raindrops pounding on our roof, I feel the sense of security that our home brings. But I don't like it when it rains too hard and the electricity's being shut down and all places become flooded. That is why I like summer more when we can always go out and go wherever we like. I also like the days when it's just cold because it's near December.

Well, here in the Philippines we don't have a choice but to enjoy the 2 seasons that we have.. But for me I enjoyed more during summer season than rainy season because sunny season isn't that hard to go to work but the only problem is it is very hot.. On the other hand, rainy season here is very difficult especially for me and those who commute.. It is really hard to ride jeepney or taxi.. Then the street are floods and most of all traffic.. I really hate it but of course there is good things about rainy season and that is the weather is cold.. It is very nice feeling when you are sleeping at night..
Yes, I sometime jealous with the other country who can enjoyed 4 seasons especially the winder season.. I also want to experience making a snowman and go for skating.. I think it is really enjoy.. I hope we can able to visit other countries that has 4 kins of season so that we can experience and learn new things about their seasons..

I think that I enjoy fall the most. The colors on the trees are all changing which makes it look great. The smell of the leaves and people just starting their fire places is also nice, It isn't too hot and it isn't too cold. There is football and halloween and Thanksgiving are both on the way. There is plenty to do with the family outside yet as well. So I think fall is the best for a lot of reasons.

You are so lucky to experience that season. I remember I always see very nice pictures and wallpapers in the internet showing fall. I wish someday I will be able to go abroad and experience fall.

Hey there! Seems like we from the same country. I like to experience that four seasons too, specially winter. you mean there iceman and snow balls. Okay, back to me. Since there are only two seasons here in the Philippines, I prefer summer. It is the time when halo-halo is abundant. lol. Vacation time, go to the beach and enjoy swimming.

Hi, did i write it wrong, hehe, well I mean more than one iceman, so I say icemen. I also do love summer, not only because of the halo-halo since I can order it on Chowking any day I love it because it's vacation time for my kids, and it means, vacation for me also, in preparing them for school.

Xiangshang mountain's red leaves is famous all over China or the world, you can stay here taking a lot of incredible secenes and forward them to your friends for sharing. Go climbing the Great wall is another amusement activity during this time as well.

You are lucky you don't get winters they are cold and wet and horrible and dull.The spring in England is beautiful with all the the new growth and the world renews after winter and it warms up slowly although we do have snow sometimes at Easter.We can see all the new lambs skipping around the fields and all the young horses and cows although they do tend to come all year round now,Living in the countryside you get to see it all,I used to work on a farm and we planted strawberries in spring.and we watched them grow while we did other jobs on the farm then we picked them in june and they tasted lovely.xx
