A place to live

Finally, moved into a nice apartment in Leabrook, an eastern suburb of Adelaide.

In case you wanted my snail mail address it is:

15/15 Statenborough Street
Leabrook (Adelaide), SA
5068

It's a long way from the beach, but it's less than 2k from the hills (great riding and running), and right between two 50m outdoor pools, both about 1km away. Sweet!

The weather is slowly heating up.... high of 38C tomorrow. Most days peak over 30C. The locals tell me February can really cook into the 40's. Most of Adelaide goes to the beach in that kind of weather... I'll be there too! The oddest thing about the weather... never any clouds. It's perfectly clear and sunny every day. There was a short rainstorm one day and that was it.

Went down to the beach on Tuesday for a short ocean swim and some sun. Forgot the sunscreen.... oops! That meant no more than 1/2 hour out there the UV index was probaby 12 (extreme). I'm definitely going to have to invest in a rash guard (that's protective surf shirt for all you prairie people) even when I remember to bring sunscreen. The water is clean and clear... and decently warm.. probably over 20C. No jellyfish or sharks to report, yeah!
