Well it looks like we got across the Nullabor in time. They had 49.9 yesterday being fairly hot to melting I would say. Only 42 here atm 🌞 really windy & dusty though.
Trying to sort out our fridgeLæs mere
Beautiful. That is almost hot enough to melt your tyres! Warm here again today but cooling down for Xmas Day. Peter & Santa excited for the "Santa De-Brief" this year. I think Martin asked Peter about it on day one. :) Hope you avoid the fire areas as you head further east. Most of Oz is burning. Lots of smoke haze today. Everything looked yellow all day. Safe travels. Hoping you get some cooler weather soon.
