Hang in there Rochelle, the season shall pass. Xx I enjoyed reading your description of Sicilian beach life and am looking forward to being warm (hopefully it’ll cool down a bit though!) as we head to Italy soon. I too will be wearing the one-piece bathing suit - now maybe I should get a fake tan before I go, so as not to look like the pastiest tourist on the beach! All the best xx

Phew! I did barely hang on, thank goodness it is over now. It’s been so much better, lovely warm days and cool nights, with a little luck this weather will spill over into September so you will have a lovely vacation. Thanks for your comment.

I loved your description of life at the beach in Sicily, very amusing. Here in Australia its been very cold, the coldest that I can remember. Next year I shall be looking to spend the 3 months of winter

somewhere warm. Perhaps Sicily!!!!

Happy to hear you survived the worst heat! Here in BC Canada we are in a heatwave and drought. Many fires everywhere. We have a small AC unit which has been running all day! Could you purchase a portable AC. We visited Sicily for 7 weeks the Spring of 2022. Had perfect cooler weather. All the best to you and yours

Thanks Laura. Yes, so many fires this year. I had a portable fan but it really did nothing. It's been wonderful this August, July was hell! Spring in Sicily is the best. Thanks for reading, all the best to you too!
