Entry for September 12, 2008

The heat continues ....although for many people who have lived here longer than us this has been a cool summer!! ( would hate to experience a hot one it's already been like living in an oven!!) We have been wilting somewhat and staying indoors with the air con working day and night! The camels seem to enjoy it though!! (see photo) These were some wild camels that just appeared one morning not far from us. Then they dissappeared as quickly as they had arrived.
The past two days there has been light breeze which has thankfully managed to cool the pool down a bit so at least it is quite pleasant to get into now and not like a hot bath. It's just when you get out from the pool and realise you forgot to leave your flip flops nearby so you hop skip jump or whatever accross the red hot patio tiles!!
However, shortly we will be returning back to home (France) to new opportunities. Yvonne will also be resuming her role of D.I.Y expert!!
I don't even think as I have said before we will mind the changing weather. We feel like the birds and cats that we see here in the garden constantly with their beaks/mouths open gasping for some cool air!! It has been fun seeing and experiencing a different land and culture but we are looking forward to our future plans.
