Air conditioning

We’re considered lucky to have air conditioning in our apartment. It’s not very common in Australia even though it gets pretty darn hot in the summer. The ironic part about this lucky happenstance is that AC in AU is nothing like back in the US! Instead of forcing cool air into a space, the system here sucks the warm air out and sends it outside. That means if it’s hot outside, the effectiveness of this stupendous system is diminished. Hum… that makes sense doesn’t it? Let’s create a system that doesn’t cool when it’s hot and doesn’t heat when it’s cool! NICE! Looks like we’re going to be investing in a few fans… ;)

  1. Hey, Linds. Reading your blog is now part of my daily routine. I have set it up with my RSS reader and follow each new post....just after I check the weather in Sydney. Great fun. Keep it up! Oh, and stay cool.

  2. PS

    Personally I love your pictures, and always enjoy it when you add pix to your posts. Could we see pix of your apartment and the Bakery? The Google street view is good but we long for your personal touch.
