A Hot Day

The second last day of December 2021 was a scorcher (hot), it was over 30C deg with no breeze so some people took their chairs into the river as the tide came in and sat to cool off.  One couldn't resist a photo or two of them.

The other photos are of the Gazebo which belongs to our son, you also see part of his rig with a shower and loo even though there are beautiful clean amenities he prefers his own.  Daughter in law has an outside small washing machine you can see in the second and last photos.
Son and his wife do their computer work inside the enclosed awing, K doing the wages and R doing his computer book work, he is very lucky he has such wonderful staff about 5 people who work for him and are trust worthy so R, K and family could come away and have a decent holiday.

  1. I would gladly be sitting in the water too with those people. That's one way to try and stay cool. :)

    1. Some people don't care for such heat so for them at least they can cool off in the water.

  5. What a brilliant way to cool off.
    Your son is lucky - but it works both ways. Trustworthy employers are MUCH more likely to have trustworthy staff.

  6. We've had so few really hot days this year, it is wonder I can't remember the day. There's a nice little boat too.

    1. Always good to have a place to keep cool in very hot weather, and equally a place to keep warm in the very cold weather.
      Sorry to hear that - hopefully the Doctor can help with that problem for you.

  8. Great to sit in the river to cool off.
    Fortunately we didn't have such a hot summer last year, but the two years before that were really hot, between 35 and 40 degrees Celsius.

  9. The chair in the river was a great cooling agent no doubt. Anything above 25 degrees is already too got for me.

    1. Those people seemed to enjoy their time sitting on their chairs in the water with their drinks. We were not too hot but we also were sitting in the shade and not doing anything.

  10. Taking the chair and sitting in the river is a good idea to cool off. We are now worrying about the thunderstorms.

  12. Your family looks very well-prepared to camp for a long time. I have never seen a clothes washer for camping! Nice you had water to enjoy on such a hot day.

    1. Yes they are prepared have have many items for their ventures away from home when they can.
      Here in Australia there are small washing machines to carry in a Ute or somewhere, very handy as long as there is a tap with clean water all is good. I have one in our caravan but a different make.

  14. That is a great way to cool off - something that I have never seen before or would have thought of doing myself.

    1. I've never thought of doing that myself, never entered my head but then I've never been too hot and if I was at some stage there wasn't water about.
