As a kid, I used to read children's books by Astrid Lindgren. In those books, the summers seemed sunny and warm and without end.
When I first met someone from Sweden, I asked him about those Astrid Lindren summers. He replied: "A Swedish summer is the best summer you can get, if you get one at all. Unfortunately, we only have one summer every 10 years, and you never know when it will be."
That is very much like dutch summers. A dutch summer can be great, but you never know when or if it will come.
