Yes, South Australia. At the moment we're just trying to make it through the worst day, then it should finally break with some rain. Fingers crossed. To be honest, when it breaks with rain at this temperature, the rain doesn't usually make it to the ground without first. It must gets muggier.
We don't have swimming holes. Much of the natural local water in SA has been fenced off as property of SA water and you can't go in. Any properties with water here are beyond our budget.
Oh wow, the part about the natural local water is crazy. I have been learning a lot about the control, possession, profiting, and privatization of water around the globe, and it's frightening to me. I am so extremely grateful to have constant access to fresh water where I live. So many humans around the world literally don't have access regularly to potable water, much less a body of water.
I also grew up where there was water everywhere on the coast of South Carolina ~ fresh, salt, and brackish (mixed) waters made a large percentage of the landscape.
Being one of the organisms on the planet who need water (oh wait, that's all organisms!) I have a hard time wrapping my mind around the concept of it being off limits in any capacity.
I will send you positive energies for a mild turn in your summer and a break in those record temps, along with at least enough of a rain shower at just the right time that you can enjoy a refreshing little dance in it. Summer rains are quite enticing...
