When it's this hot you need water

I have to admit that when the sun goes down, or before it comes up, it is actually getting much more bearable but once that ball of fire is high in the sky it is still well into the 90's.

The only thing you can do and be comfortable whilst doing it is go for a swim or eat ice cream by the bucket load. Alas the latter isn't good for the hips.

We spent the afternoon in the pool with our friends Jakie, Caro and Lucy. Such a perfect afternoon.

This is Gypsy, she really isn't loving the water but the girls are trying to convince her it's a really good idea.Julia on the other hand loves the water and loves it even more if she has someone to swim laps with.

Soon the weather will get cooler right?
