Lately its been really hot and humid out. If I did not have to work during the day, I would be out in a pool or at the beach. I cannot stand the weather when it gets real humid and hot outside. What do you like to do on a hot and humid day?

On a Hot Summer day? Well, I'd like to go to a Beach Club, and spend my day in the swimming pool... Swimming, of course! There's nothing better than that... You, on a Club, very well relaxed, in the pool... Enjoying the whole afternoon... You know that if you want you can play some Ping Pong on the Games Room, as well! It's really good. Or, if you get tired from both, you can just go for a walk in the beach and enjoy the Sea. What more would you want? However, I know that it's hard for that to happen. We used to go to the Beach once a year, but now it's not that often anymore. And it's not everytime we go to a Beach Club. We just spend some days in a house at the Beach, but it's good anyway!

The one I visited was... In the beach! Here in Brazil, we have some Beach clubs in the beaches, but restrict clubs... I mean, you work on a company, and your company owns that club. Only people from that company may enter and use the club.

During the summer I like to go to the beach or on the mountains, but I haven't a lot of high mountains near my city, so generally I go to the beach. I think that stay in the wather of the sea is the better way for don't stay in the hot.

I do what I usually do. I work in my house writing and I do my housework, make the meals, etc. I also go for a walk and get some exercise. However I usually prepare cold meals like potato salad (dangerous for me, weight problem), and salads. I make sure I wear something light like sleeveless top and shorts. Me, I am the opposite, I cannot stand when it gets really cold and snowy, and especially if it is humid. I do not use sun blocks, I heard they are not that healthy, but I do wear sunglasses.

I like to avoid the sun like the plague on the worst hot an humid days. Being from north carolina, I can tell you all about that kind of weather in the summer. You asked a little above how hot does it get here. The raw temperature is high 90's to low 100's in the height of summer. Not too bad right... except when you check the humidity levels.. and your eyes bulge out. Some days it's like trying to breathe a light steam. You escape it for the moment with a cold bath, but unless you have air conditioning of some type.. you will become uber-sticky in a matter of moments no matter howoften you bathe. ick.

Big Industrial Air Conditioner - This is a picture of a big industrial air conditioner like the ones used by big stores like Walmart and Sobeys. Makes shopping that much more attractive on too-hot summer days.
If it gets too hot I will just go to the mall or walmart or some other air-conditioned spot of the day. The beach is fun but I can't really swim so it's more about tanning than cooling off for me.

A mall or store is a great way to get away from the heat.

Lazing in a pool is a great way to cool off in the humid weather.
