It's COMING...

It's a bird, It's a plane, It's...

The signs are:
  • scorpion sightings have risen sky high in the last few weeks
  • one shower a day is not enough
  • short sleeve shirts are now feeling to restricting
  • no cloud in sight
  • skirts are a no no, you end up with a thigh rash
  • temperatures in our house keep climbing to high 90's
  • the winds are here-multiple "wind storms" lately that have kept us stuck in the house
  • sleeping makes the day go by faster
  • ANTS! They are desperate for water and are invading our house
  • children have nothing to do, bc farming season is over so they sit at our house and bug us
  • you sweat profusely on public transport
  • a face mask is a must when biking or on public transport, due to the amount of dust in the air
  • SINUS INFECTIONS!- due to the above point
  • we are starting to have to bike early in the morning or early evening bc of heat and wind factors
  • there is no way we cannot sleep on the roof, we have to have a breeze
  • spritzing yourself with water at night is a must
  • showering with clothes on before bed is a plus...Malian air-conditioning

HOT SEASON, gotta love it!

  1. Hi Joe and Ashley,

    Hot Season In "Mali", Snow Storm In "A" Town!!!!! "WOW" the climate conditions don't seem very enjoyable. Wind storms and high temperatures not a good combination. Your "ANT" situation, just say I am doing a little dance in my chair :-) I'm glad I am not at your house. Be careful and stay cool!!!!!!

    Love
    Jody, Ben and Anna
