The temperatures are going up, and even though we're maxing out at about 33 Celsius right now, the humidity makes walking home like walking through a hot, low-hanging cloud. It's disgusting. I finally gave in and started using the AC at home last week. I put it off for as long as possible, because I knew I would do it all the time after I got used to it. And even though I walk for short periods between air-conditioned buildings and vehicles, I still feel fairly gross, and extra showers are a necessity.
Today I saw a couple of men get off the bus carrying foldable fans, which made me happy (I own two and like to carry at least one around with me).
I also saw a man walking around trying to sell binoculars. I'm sure he does a roaring trade.
