Nick was studying all day as his exam is only a week away now. I took Emily to Tracy's for a playdate with Lottie. It was really hot and very humid so by the time I got there I was drenched in sweat and very thirsty. Probably the most sticky day yet of the year. The girls got on very well, even though it has been 4 months since we saw them. Lottie seems to have developed mentally in the same direction as Emily, and it helps a lot that she likes Thomas too. I have to say that James is very good with kids. He filled up two large plastic tubs for them out on the bamboo-enclosed patio and they played a little, but then Emily wimped out in the cold water. He had them in stitches 'dancing on the ceiling', which involved holding them upside down with feet on the ceiling. I was pleased that Emily did justice to the lunch that Tracy prepared, as most kids don't eat well at someone else's house.
We called in to see Charlize in the afternoon, where they had naked water play in her inflatable pool, but again Emily was not comfortable in the cold water and soon got out. Julia had some new bubble blowers that made a funny noise and had the two cracking up. The two blondies looked very cute snuggled up in matching towels afterwards.
I approached my weekly run in an apprehensive frame of mind due to the conditions, and my run was indeed terrible due to the high humidity. I did manage a full hour though. My achilles is very uncomfortable after regular stress from high-impact aerobics and I felt a bit worried about Fuji, so may have to skip the class for the next two weeks.
