This week has been defined by the weather. The high of 44.6 degrees on Friday was the peak of the insanity. On Wednesday when I was at the Australian Open for the quarter finals, they closed the roof on the main arena and suspended play on the outside courts because of the temp. While that was fantastic during the matches, when I left and walked to the train station it was like walking into an oven, the wind is hot, the suns intensity burns right through you and there is no relief.

This weather continued on Thursday and Friday with records being set for high temperature in what is apparently the worst heatwave here for 100 years. Lovely when the place I’m staying doesn’t have air conditioning. Due to this fact I spent many hours swimming in the bay over the last couple days. Today is back to reasonable summer temps.

I did get some work on Friday, just half a day, but with quite a few more days likely when they need extra people. Some income at last!
