Yes, it's a bit of a bouncy spring here in Adders. Almost a
Melbourne-ish '4 seasons in one day' at times. Early morning temps can
still be under 10 degrees but the max slowly on the up.
Angle of afternoon sun just here feels like something that flares and
falls.
Enjoy the dry season. I find NT (well, Darwin) a bit too full on but
have only ever been there in the wet when my glasses would fog up
initially on going outside, like in Singapore.
Cheers,
Jill

Like the notion of sun falling, Jill. Jack of such spring swervings,
basking in a little regularity in NT at the moment, no rain, every
day
chimes in from 23-34.
