40ºC every day. 28ºC in our air conditioned kitchen.
Rained yesterday. Dirty rain, so lots of cleaning to do on Thursday, changeover day.
It rained in the night. Dirty rain. We now have a massive cleanup to do. One of the hazards of living so close to the African desert.
First trip out on bicycle this morning. Got feet wet in little lake under a bridge, but apart from that, rather satisfying. I see there are huge crops of beans and peas out there. The only negative thing is the olives are days away from flowering. Better break out the masks and antihistamines.
It rained quite a bit, so the flamingos have stayed. This time last year they had already left. There was no point laying because the foxes would have stolen the eggs.
So, if you'd like to see some big, pink birds, you know where they are :-)
Oh, and they say the flamingos just know, so we are expecting more rain. But not just yet - forecast for this coming week is very summery. Monday 28ºC.
