It’s cool tonight – down to 102! – and Phoenicians on bikes, myself included, take to the streets to celebrate :)

Love that it’s cooler, that I think 102 is cooler now, and that there were more pedestrians and bikers in the street on the way home tonight than cars… I’ve said it before but there are beautiful sunsets here – they reflect in the glass on the office buildings – and I’m still not tired of palm trees.
