It's actually warm enough to eat breakfast in the garden thismorning, a very rare occurrence indeed!

Meanwhile in Germany, Belgium and The Netherlands…..I live west, we didn’t have any rain. We are expecting high tide from the rivers as we live at the estuary of several rivers….

Soooo smoky here today due to wildfires in BC (next province over). Plus we have a heat warning…super. Can’t open windows due to smoke, but we’ll roast inside without some fresh air. Lovely.

We visited a vineyard in Ahrweiler several years ago when were we were on a cruise on the Rhine. Such a beautiful place…Dreadful flooding in Germany, Belgium & The Netherlands

The footage out of Germany is shocking, it reminds me of the tsunami footage out of Japan, so powerful. It must have been absolutely terrifying to witness.

23 degrees and rising, its a beautiful day but far too warm to take the dogs out in and in any case , both have to be isolated , at least there is some shade in the garden . Lots of people on holiday here, dragging dogs around in the strong sunshine or on the beach all day with no shelter , poor things x

Currently we have an Air Quality Index of 10+, which is the highest it can get. It is so awful. I have healthy lungs, mainly, but I can get mild asthma occasionally. I feel this in my chest, a sense that I can’t catch a proper breath. It’s awful, like you are slowly being asphyxiated.
I can’t imagine how people who already have lung problems are coping. This is supposed to stick around for a few days….and although it’s cooler today at 22C, it’s heating again to the 30s next week. No air conditioning. So, open the Windows and you choke, keep them closed and you roast.
Here’s a couple pics from downtown Edmonton, which is where we are now.

Yes, it’s forest fires but not ones close by. It’s mainly from the ones in BC, the province to the west. But the prevailing winds are bringing most of the smoke here. It’s so gross. My sister who is vacationing in BC keeps cheerily reporting nice blue skies there.

It’s around 30 degrees again today. Harley and I drove to Plymouth today. We had the air con on all the way down. We stopped off at the services and sat on the grass under trees where she had a frozen filled bone. I wrapped it in foul and put it in the passenger footwell and it stayed frozen for over an hour and a half!
In Plymouth the temps are similar to at home. Both dogs pop outside for short periods to go in the padding pool, the come back in soon after. Walks for the next few days will be in the woods where there is water. Harley will be in her element!

It's unbearably hot today. Weather station reading 22.6 °C but I'm melting. I've got sweat coming from places I didn't know I had. Should have gone to the shore. The dogs are too hot too.

It's been 26° here today and I must admit that I love it! Joy and I left the house at 7am, had a quiet and shady walk by the river, also a good swim and were home by 8.30. The garden is shady in the summer and there's been a nice breeze, so once all the camping preparation was done, we snoozed outside until it was time for tea. We're still outside now, me in my pyjamas, just watching the sunset. Might go in then, or might put some music on and stay out here a bit longer. It's so rare for us to be able to do this here! Feel almost like we're on holiday!
