Dog days

Hot 1441 views. 2014-7-21 21:18 | necessary, sometimes, yourself, journey, morning


The first period of the hot season has begun. The daily temperatures went up so high from late morning to early afternoon that it was unbearable sometimes. It was unwise to go outside in these hours for you would be all in a sweat even after a short journey in the sun. So if not necessary, don't expose yourself to the sun at the time. In spite of that, I had to go to our bungalow preparing lunch for son and then bring it back to the flat at noon. Once inside either one of the dwellings, I would strip to the waist. Yesterday afternoon the intolerable heat left me restless on the bed. Finally I lay down on the floor with draughts.

Strange. In some places an electric fan would be sufficient to keep cool and comfortable. At my residence, I am enjoying the summer with the bright sunshine and wonderful greenery plus the wide blue sea in view. Looking across the open space I noticed most of the homes with windows closed and air-conditioners running at full power. Somehow, I don't like air-conditioning because it feels artificial to me.

I was at a inland city in North East China last year and the heat was almost unbearable.  I got an electric fan and was surprised to find wind coming out of the fan was hot rendering the fan useless.
