Heat

The weather is so hot that my feet were in pain from walking barefoot from the changing rooms to the pool, today at lunchtime. It must have been a grand total of eight metres. The ground was scorching and I had forgotten my flipflops. The though of scorching tiles didn't occur to me. I normally swim before work when the heat is less stifling. And you know it's hot when getting in the water brings no relief. The water is the same - too hot.

Monday night I had to sleep without aircon due to technical issues. I opened the window and tried to sleep with the fan but it was too hot. I lay in bed sweating and wishing that the rainy season would come. It's always slightly cooler after a rainstorm before the steamy, humid heat hits.
