A few days back it was a scorcher and I was actually on my back on the concrete floor panting due to overheating. Even the creek felt warm and did me no good. I soaked all my clothes and laid down on the floor in the shade until I felt better.

Sometimes you just overheat and there is nothing you can do about it but try to relax. Laying flat on your back with your knees slightly raised will help. Get in the shade and wet your clothes down and rest until you feel better.

Some signs of heat exhaustion are dizziness, shortness of breath, headache, nausea and when you stop sweating. This can turn into sun stroke which is deadly if you do not get out of the sun immediately.

The next day was cooler and gray. It felt very good after such a hot day. It was a huge temperature swing.

Australia can be very hot and the UV index is high. The sun seems more intense here. But it is a beautiful country.
