THE HEATWAVE HAS ARRIVED!!!!
We were thinking to taking the river cruise to Bratislava a short trip of 75 minutes for weekend, but the heat was to much to handle.
So what does one do in such a heatwave to be comfortable.... find a cool place to sit.
Luckily I can scoot down to the basement or sit upstairs with the AC running.
Keeping cool in this sort of heat is a challenge so what to do...
ā±ššāā go swimming at one of the many pools indoors or outdoors
š¦šØāā head to the ice cream shops, the perfect hot weather treat
ššššāāāeating cool things, plenty of salads, slices of watermelon, frozen grapes are another healthy treat, anything simple and easy is my thing on hot days,** One great thing is a cold cucumber soup. Here is the Recipe
š»šŗā drink plenty of fluids, avoid alcohol . My favourite is making a drink with crushed ice, light milk, yogurt and fresh fruits - blended in blender and serviced in a tall glass. A real TREAT and healthy. Another favourite is lemonade, with fresh squeezed lemons .
ššš āāāāāwear cooler lighter clothing, avoid dark shades and synthetics. stick with cottons , linens and looser fitting things.
āāāā STAY indoors during the hottest part of the day. enjoy the early mornings or late evenings
when it is cooler out.
ššæāāā take cool showers, or wet a towel and wrap around neck
šæšæāā cool down outdoor surfaces i.e. concrete pavers with water, the area will be cooler
and more comfortable, if you are sitting there.
Hope wherever you are you are enjoying the summer and keeping cool too!

We had another long weekend here. It is always nice to have a break and be able to take a few
small weekend trips or work on things around the home .... but and this is one thing about the month of June over here- the temperatures.
Never would I have expected such HOT weather in Austria. I think more Arizona or Asia or Australia for hot places. Again the summer heatwave is hitting Europe. I never thought it be so bad, I can recall being out in 32 degree weather , but it was a drier heat . Over here it is sweltering and humid... a killer! The morning temperature of 28C before 9 and humidity of 67% is NOT for me!!
We were thinking to taking the river cruise to Bratislava a short trip of 75 minutes for weekend, but the heat was to much to handle.
So instead we watched the French open tennis final; what an exciting game. The young Austrian player Dominic Thiem is one to watch. He is now top 4 in the world, not bad to be part of the Nadal, Novak and Federer group.
