Feeling the heat

Wow, such a hot weekend. Saturday in particular was sweltering and I had to keep going to the freezer to cool my face,lol! Really hard to cope with 42 degree temperatures in a little heat retaining flat, especially when you don't have AC (we make do with two fans blowing hot air at us!) I barely moved all day except for a late afternoon swim and then, quite madly, we went out with friends for Indian in the evening - just what you need to help cool you down!

Yesterday afternoon was a little cooler and we ventured out for some exploring around Sydney and to get some frappes/iced mocha (just what was needed) in a very cute cafe (above).

Did anyone else feel the heat this weekend?

    My poor daughter moved house on Saturday, and then to add insult to injury...stepped on a bee!

    Oh Kerry that would have been awful for her, bless! Hope she's ok and the move went well.

    I was feeling the heat here in Brisbane too and fortunately we have air conditioning. I did venture down to the beach where the breeze was just beautiful but the beach was still closed for swimming due to the recent floods. ;-)

    Those kind of temps are just plain rude! You poor thing. No a/c? Don't know how you coped.
    That is a VERY cute cafe though. Hope your week is a little cooler.

    We have totally missed out on the heat down here in Tassie, thankfully! Oh you poor thing with no AC - ouch!
    The cafe in your pics looks like a lovely spot :)

    Thankfully the weather gave us some relief here in Perth over the weekend, it has been awfully hot this summer and hard to bear.

    No, no heat here. I've just got back from the park with my little girl and we were almost blown away by the bitter wind, and it was COLD! I don't mind though, I really am a cold weather girl!

    Love the name cornflakes & honey. As soon as I read your comment, I had to come and visit. Love your blog, and see you are a fellow flower lover too :o)

    Good grief yes! I nearly packed my bags and returned to my frosty North on Saturday afternoon when my phone showed a soaring 44C in the Eastern Suburbs..! It was still 37.5 at midnight when we went to bed.. Sticky!
    Then came the lovely Southerly and the cooler temperature.. in fact I am wearing layers today..!
