Do we leave the house on days like this?

Honestly, I’m probs gonna come across as a bit of an idiot, but I’m back in Sydney after a good 10 years of living abroad (in Europe) and I’ve forgotten how we actually function when it gets this hot.

Is it normal to leave the house if you don’t have to, or is everyone just cooped up in air con?

Is it weird that I’m contemplating going down to the beach to jump in the ocean, is this only a thing a tourist would do in almost 40 degrees?

I have been gone for too long and don’t remember what the accepted game plan is for Sydneysiders 😆 Help!
