It's been in the nineties the past week.  We missed the heat when we were at the sea but the last few days at school have been treacherous.   The air conditioning, when on, doesn't really work so we have been one large sticky, smelly crew.  Today it maxed at about 98 degrees.  Holy cow.  GP, Grace and I are hiding in our bedroom as it's the only room with air.  I'll venture out to water my poor plants once the sun is a little lower.

Anywho.  Last Thursday GP and I took the day off and went to see the World Expo in Milan.  Check out the site:  www.expo2015.org  It was fabulous.  The Expo is so large we will need at least another day to see it all.  We were there 9 hours and saw less than half.  We plan on going back with Grace is September.  The theme is supposed to be "feeding a growing world".  Some "stands", (fantastic abstract or imitation classic buildings mostly), stuck to the theme and were very informative about food production innovations or water desalinization or conservation.  The US stand was so informative it was boring as Hell.  Other stands were basically tourist information offices.  Still others were all about the typical food and recipes from their country.  There was a lot of food.  GP and I ate a kebab in Turkey, a beer and hot pretzel in Germany, more beer and tacos de los poblanos in Mexico then dinner in Algeria, (vegetarian buffet).  Dessert was gelato.  Sadly I wasn't even full...... 

Yummy kebab

"Italy" where the lines were so long we couldn't get in

"Spain" had flying suitcases

"UK" was my favorite with a huge metal buzzing beehive hooked up to a real beehive somewhere in Oxford.

I have too many photos to share but I'll add some more later.  Off to water my little garden with it's lolling tongue.  xxoo me
