Cooling Off At The Beach!

 It was another very hot day here yesterday. Our cooling system died last Saturday after a power surge. 
The technicians were supposed to come yesterday 
but it was cancelled due to storms coming. 
We still don't know when they will come! 
We headed off to Altona Beach about 6pm for a swim.
Well, the boys swam. I didn't!
 Some ball fun was had. That's Callum with Austin.
 It was a stormy looking sky.
 
 We could see lightening way over the other side of the bay.
 
I managed to get a photo of this bolt of lightening.

We finished off the night eating fish and chips in the park. 
It was a bit too windy on the beach.

Staying Cool!

We headed off to Altona Beach last night for a picnic tea. 
It was about 10 degrees cooler there than at home. 
All the kids went for a swim. I did wear my new bathers but as the temperature was now below 30oC it was 
too cold for me to go in! LOL!
There was the obligatory cricket match.
Sunset back flips by Austin and Ryan!
The sky was amazing and as time went on, 
the sunset was gorgeous (sorry, no photo).

After another stinking hot day today (44oC), there were plans to go back to Warrandyte for a swim in the river. Unfortunately, a thunderstorm came so everyone stayed home in the cooling and I went down to quilting. 
Another 44 degree day is predicted for tomorrow!
