RE: Hot, Too Hot and Golfito Bay (how to improvise) Food Fight Friday - Round 36 <ding>

in #fff6 years ago

Hey, @dandays.

So, @puravidaville had a phrase in her #fff post about even sweat sweats down there. I figure you should have said something like, Even fire fires...

I get the idea it might be hot down there. I'm not sure if it was the near fiery death you had by opening up the blinds, or the fact that you can't even walk on the beach (where there's usually a nice breeze to stiff wind, and well, water). Maybe it's the sand.

Anyway, have you bought one of those personal temperature regulators you wear around your neck? I've used them a couple of times in different places and they actually work. You kind of have to keep them wet every hour or so, but the better ones (some aren't as good as others) do the trick.

If you're fashion conscience, you might not like them because they resemble kerchiefs, and nothing screams gringo tourist like kerchiefs, but when your skin burns like mind does, and you sweat like I do, some fashion faux pas, like big hats with neck flaps, become essential life saving devices. :)

I use do appreciate your comments, sir, good morning! Happy Saturday, glenalbrethsen. Who’s cooking the meatballs this weekend?

Oh my goodness, it’s so impossible to ‘blend in’ down here, a couple of gringos thumbing their way through and learning the culture, language, food, all at the same time, neck coolers and big hats are likely to make the general public laugh out loud at us rather than just laugh inside! That’s funny.

Oh shoot is it hot, it’s in the middle of a bay and the air is so heavy. Also, being a bay, ships, boats, etc all dock here so there isn’t any shoreline. The nearest sand is about a 10 minute drive—I’m not compliant about that! But, we can’t just go get in the water like we’ve been doing. “Woe is me.” God is great, Glen!

I wish I would’ve thought of that, even fire fires, laugh out loud.. good one! 👍🏿

Thanks for stopping by @glenalbrethsen. Fff wouldn’t be the same without you.
