it is a wide-spread rumour in the media that the 2010 summer will be a great one. At least for the northern countries, that means less rain and warmer than usually weather while that may not be so god news for the Mediterranean ones where higher temperatures won’t be that pleasant. Another thing to bear in mind about this summer is that during World Cup summers people tend to enjoy more staying at home and they travel less. It is definitely at big social event rather than a pure sports one, given the influence it has on so many people’s daily life around the world.
The world cup by itself is another reason why the anticipation about the 2010 summer are so high. All football fans are definitely excited about that, which is going to be the first world cup ever to be hosted on African soil. So, the combination of a really warm summer without much rain and lots of sport activity is enough to bring great excitement. After such a hard and intense winter all Europeans deserve a great summer, especially as recession doesn’t seem to get out of the way yet.
A typical summer scene would include lots of friends taking their places around the TV in the garden, being absorbed by the commentator’s voice that will be coming out of those. Kids will be running around playing with their summer toys, say a radio controlled helicopter,while at the same time their parents will be enjoying a cold glass of beer straight out of the beer dispenser. And if there are some people around that do not enjoy watching football that much, you should expect some great barbecue too.
Hopefully for many, there’s no room for mistakes in the scientist’s forecasts for the summer. Fingers crosses, the summer 2010 will be one to remember!
