Hi, new from Melbourne, the heat has been quite a shock. Other than cruising the malls, I have been to a few expat coffee mornings to meet people and have made some new friends, which is terrific.
Let's all get out there!
EW coffee morning next on my list!
I am so lucky as hubby has finally moved back to Dubai after a few years in Oman. Feeling so happy and grateful at the same time as I know many aren't so lucky.
I should find the heat of the summer a doddle, after all hubby says I'm hot stuff. :lol:
Think he's due a visit to supersavers. :nerd:
Apart from going to sit family in Europe for a few weeks, I'll be staying here with my husband and two year old. I've joined a few Facebook groups and will be making the most of invitations to coffee mornings and play dates to keep both myself and my little one happy! I'll also be spending lots of time window shopping and visiting play centres in some of our lovely air-conditioned malls as well as visiting the various water/splash parks around the city. As a general rule of thumb, I keep lots of drinks in the fridge in the car along with a pack of wet-wipes (which can be used by any of us when we get too hot). I also keep a fan and a water vaporiser in my hand bag to cool my little one if she's outside for more than a few minutes. Outdoor exercise isn't going to happen, so in order to keep fit I'll be swimming lots and using the gym in order to burn off all of those calories from the cake I'll be eating during all of those coffee mornings and mall visits!
