Hot Hot Heat

After just 4 days in the Northern Territory I'm ready to get back to England and the rain. The heat and humidity here is just unbearable. Sadler's getting sick of me whining at him so I thought that I'd let everyone back home know that you're better off over there! Having just stepped of the lovely airconditioned Ghan in Alice Springs into 34C heat and about 60% humidity we had to endure a bus ride with 20 others to the hostel and, upon arrival, everyone got out dripping wet through and unfortunately I haven't been dry since! I've found that the trick is to move between airconditioned buildings as fast as you can. We've been seeking refuge in malls, tourist info shops, libraries and bars. So next time you're sitting at home, in a couple of layers with the heating on, reading our blog and thinking enviously of all the fun we're having in Oz, make yourselves feel a bit better by thinking of us suffering in Darwin.....its no fun you know!
