Heat

Old Guesty has travelled the globe and been in some hot places. Dry heat, humidity, heat that will take your breath, heat that burns and heat that even shade does not protect you from! Here in Ayios Nikalaus it as hot as anywhere I've been, not a cloud in the sky, clear blue, unrelenting sunshine! Don't misunderstand me, I like it and it does my old bones to be so warm. Never the less one has to take refuge and Air Conditioning is a friend. They say "mad dogs and Englishman, go out in the midday sun" but this Englishman keeps well to the shadows at noon. Wherever one travels locals always have an opinion on the weather, it is a favourite subject and people never tire of talking about it! Naturally it is expected , we are exposed to the vagaries of it daily. It is a testament to the human condition that we are so adaptable to whatever climate we find ourselves in.
