Oh for water games

The 'Summer Camps / Holiday Clubs' have ended, but the temperatures have remained high. Our current heatwave started a few weeks ago and yesterday climbed to 114F (44C).

It was quite amusing to see relay races and team games where the prize for winning was having water ballons broken over your head; and pass the parcel (pass the water balloon) where the prize for holding the water balloon when the music stopped was bursting it over yourself.
One advantage of not having air-conditioning and a car is that you become more accustomed to the heat. Last night we were driven back to our home in a nice air-conditioned car and when I got out my glasses misted over because of the heat and night-time humidity - something that normally happens when you enter a steamy kitchen or bathroom.
