I know right?

I swear to God that I am buying the 1st thermoelectric steering wheel and I'm going to switch polarity to make it cold...

Damn. Is it really that hard to plant a tree? Jk. That tunnel looks amazing. Like being born with that light at the end.

I don't think I'd describe man's favorite piece of anatomy in that particular fashion...

Need more pics!! I can’t get my head around the temperatures over there.. I just about lost my mind when it hit 30C last summer.

Random question, but I presume the roads are all concrete over there? Not Tarseal?

Right now it's staying pretty cool and has not been above 46c but soon it'll warm up and we'll be hitting 54c-57c

As for the roads here they are asphalt and it's strange to walk on and have your shoes squeak from the heat...
