Hot hot hot in Sorrento



It is so, so very hot that really I am over it now. It was 36 degrees at one o'clock as I was driving (very well might I add) back from the airport. When it is that hot I am in no mood to meet and greet customers...with sweat pouring down your face it is not such a welcoming site!



The heat is not such an issue for me, as being Australian we do have pretty hot summers (it got up to 47 degrees when I was there at the beginning of this year.)It is the humidity that I cannot cope with. I suffered through a hot and humid summer 2 years ago in Sicily and was so happy when the locals here in Sorrento told me that it is not normally so humid here in the summer...well that was then and this is now...now they are all telling me that this summer is the most humid in about 7 years so that's just great! Thanks Scirocco for following me here to Sorrento.

People just have no patience when the weather is like this. The humidity and hot winds make people go mad (me included.)

So to make myself feel better I have been looking back on my lap top of photos of the bel ragazzo and I in Malito over the winter...and it doesn't make me feel so hot anymore.

I can't stand humidity either. Don't know how people live up the top of Australia.

That last photo is stunning.

Hi Jewel,
I don't know how they live up there either. 2 years ago we went up to Cairns and then even further to the Daintree rainforest and it was soooo humid it was unbearable!
