Jan 10, 2009 08:07

so i'm on this other forum i visit - mostly west aussies. and there's a thread about "so how hot is it?"
and this one woman has posted - she lives on a station out in Payne's Find ( view map - scroll out to see where it's located in WA) which, apart from being on a major road, is pretty much the middle of nowhere/desert as you can come ( Read more... )

And our unusual -10 probably seems quite unnecessary by comparison...

i LOVE cold weather. tho being in perth our 'cold' is not really that cold i guess, not in the scheme of things... like canada or russia, haha.

In Canada they say anything below -40 will cause any exposed skin to freeze instantly... so I bet if it's PLUS 40 and beyond, you would BURN instantly.

I'm glad it's going to "cool off" to 29 on Monday so I can go biking in Kings Park during the day. :D

o i got your suncream. it's in the back of my car.

are you going to kings park in the morning? you HAVE to do that once while your here - maybe stay up all night or something... but the sunrise over the city with that incredible view from the park is just... amazing. very very gorgeous.

and yes, next week should be SIGNIFICANTLY more tolerable.

I am sooo not a morning person (as you may have guessed!), so I don't know if I will be able to catch any sunrises while here, lol! I can pull an all-nighter, but I wouldn't want to do one in Kings Park... maybe I will have to stay a night at a hostel downtown or something if you think it's really that worthwhile. :p

When Leah was doing her exchange student thing in Bolivia she called and wanted to know what 52 was in farenheit. She just about died she said adn I bet she did coming from cold vermont.When I went I made sure it was their winter and it was still 70 +80. I had sleevless shirts on and the Bolivians had gloves and scarfs. They looked at me about hte same as I looked at them.
