How's the Weather? Not as Expected!

Tweet

My family came to Dakar, Senegal about 2 weeks ago. The weather here has not been what I expected. I had previously spent 2 1/2 months in Conakry, Senegal. It was very, very hot in Conakry. Most days it was in the 90's, and if it dropped into the 70's at night, that was cool. So, when I was packing I put in my suitcase everything my children and I would need for very hot weather. I packed my daughters shorts, tank tops and sun dresses. Now that we have been in Dakar for two weeks, I can see I went wrong with my packing. It is in the 70's during the day, and at night it drops down into the 50's or 60's. We are cold, and we don't have warm enough clothes! Have you ever gone on a trip and packed for the wrong weather?
