What have I done for me lately?

Today I went out to walk around the Kerameikos, to make sure I know where everything is in advance of taking a tour around: things look rather different on the ground than on the plan (the map is not the territory) and one visit last year is insufficient for my purposes.

It was 40 degrees Celsius, and there was very little shade. Nonetheless, I survived outside for two hours, before being forced to retreat into an interior. Fear me, for I am mighty... mighty lucky I avoided heatstroke. Old-fashioned expedient of wearing a wet hat helped.

Still. 20-25C hotter than average temperature in summer back home. I think I'm doing well to be even this active.

You are doing amazingly. That temperature would defeat me.

I find that today's 36C-high feels balmy and temperate in comparison. Ugh. Where's my rain?
