It's not the heat, it's the humidity

If that truism is familiar to you, then you must be from Philadelphia.  I stepped off the plane last evening and stepped right into a sauna. Very different from the heat in Avignon, even though the thermometer reads the same: 33⁰ C (92⁰ F).  As a matter of fact, the heat was so dry in the south of France that my skin started to get dry and I had to buy some moisturizer.

 Managed to stay awake till 10pm here (4am Paris time) but then woke up at 4:00 this morning.  Still have a bit of adjusting to do.  Including getting used to what passes for coffee here...
