Calor, Calor y Mucho Calor!

The worst part of my day is when I have to put on sunblock. It’s a hard life, I know. The heat in Buenos Aires  tamed down 4 days after Christmas, usually ranging 22C – 29C.  But I have gotten so dark here, that I had to rev up my protection against the sun. I came here with just two bottles of sunblock, I now have four (Australian sunblock is still the best – light and not greasy).

Left: Damage after 7 days in BA.

Right: 2 weeks later.

Since it’s summer here, the sun is out from 7am till about 8:00pm. As much as I want to avoid the sun, it would be such a shame to waste a whole day holed up in the apartment. But today, I did exactly that. It rained this morning (I was asleep all afternoon, so I don’t know if it had rained some more) so it justified my decision to stay home. It feels nice to sloth around and not put on sunblock, for a change.

But once the sun sets, I’m outta here!
