Protea

Today was probably the hottest summer day of this season, so far.
It is not comfortable to be outside in the sun: most plants are drooping and begging for a little relief.

At 35*C on our covered front stoep - with added humidity, it is no joke.

Not a cloud in the sky - how I wish I could bag some of the blazing sunshine and ship it to the blippers in need of a little undiluted beach weather.
