Today we travelled a long way - the heat wave that has been around for the last six day will continue for a least a week or more. Some of the record temperatures in the past week have broken records from 100 years ago. Was 37C this morning when we left Mildura. The temperature sensor in the car was either 40 or 41 all the way to where we stopped at 6PM and it was 35C here when we arrived. Staying in Coulburn for the night and tomorrow will go into Sydney to stay overnight and then will return the car on Saturday and Donna will fly home . I am going to stay and will go to the Zoo, take a side trip to the blue mountains and then on Tuesday take the Train down to Mowra to see some relatives and stay there until Friday, when I will return to Sydney and Fly home on Saturday. Have to try and change my flight but knowing Air Canada it may not be possible but will give it a try.
