You are so lucky to have such a pretty river close to you! in Israel, and where I live in Israel - you have to drive for about 3 hours to get to a river that might give a competition to this one. you have a pretty country :)
This is an import and and hard point that you rise - the acceptnace of weather and the fact that complaining about it only makes things worse, and it's a point that is not exclusive to the weather - it's a general truth, there are things we can't do nothing about, and if we will ponder them over and over - it will only make us feel more bad - while just accepting those things as they are might bring some consolation.
I remember when I was in the army - in the beginning the freezing cold nights disturbed me real bad - I always thought about how cold it is and how I want to be at home in my bed etc... but one day I just decided not to think about whether it's cold or hot or whatever - I just focused on other things and tried to joke and keep my mood up - and it actually really helped - I just didn't feel that cold anymore - so it's a pretty awesome change of thought one can do, albeit not an easy one - one has to flow with the inevitable, just like the river flows like nature has to, without giving it any though.
thanks for the thoughts and photos Velimir!
