Yep, yesterday was pretty hot, in fact every day is pretty hot round here!

Temperatures in Taipei soared to 38.5 degrees Celsius shortly after 1 p.m. on Wednesday, the second highest ever recorded in the city in the month of July, the Central Weather Bureau said.  The highest temperature ever recorded in Taipei in July was 38.6 degrees in 2010. The highest temperature recorded in Taipei this year was 38.7 degrees, set on June 1.

Although I was out and about in Taipei at 1:00 pm yesterday, this was taken a few hours earlier, just as the day’s heat was setting in!
