elissandeWent to Canberra over the weekend. The trip down was after dark and filled with trucks and other car drivers feeling suicidal.
Coming back on Sunday was lovely. The day was warm; the car was air-conditioned; the traffic was light. While it was warm, it hasn't yet reached that stage where it feels like the landscape is being baked. In fact, due to recent rain (maybe not quite enough to break the drought in Southern NSW), the grass was green and the trees looked happy. Lake George was a sea of green, as opposed to the brown that it has been the last few times I've been past i, and there was even a little bit of surface water in it.
Unfortunately, they're predicting 42 (Celsius) for tomorrow...
