SUMMER HAS ARRIVED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
At last summr is here - we were beginning to wonder if we had gone to the right country - its supposed to be sub tropical but we'd say so far more like sub artic!!
Anyhoo - since about a week ago the temp has been about 24 each day (today it was 27!!) with the odd cloud in the sky - its like being in Costa Del plonka but without the scallies!!
What we didn't expect was the humidity which can be quite debilitating - sleeping at night is very difficult - we've not quite got the hang of it - if we leave the patio doors open - we get eaten to death by the mozzies. If we shut the patio doors we get boiled!!
Here's some pictures of our first dinner on the deck - we've eaten out every night since. We're lead to believe that this will continue like this until April!!















It is standard here to have a barbeque as we're sure you can imagine. Ou's has a rotissorie - and we dicided to do a leg of lamb to start (lamb is dead cheap). Well - we've never tasted lamb like it - it was gorgeous. We attempted a chicken - but it fell off and when we went out to check - the whole thing was on fire - it was completely foul!!
