Cold Water
Here's another random Dubai fact: we don't have cold water.

At least, right now we don't. It makes sense, too - it's still 95 degrees out every day.

I guess they could have cold water here, but then they'd have to physically refridgerate it, and that's just nuts. I mean, more nuts than an indoor ski mountain in the middle of the desert.

So yeah, for showering or washing dishes it's great, either knob brings hot water. I assume some people would have difficulty doing laundry though. Don't some people prefer cold water for the lights? Or is it darks? I wash all of my clothes together at the same time, and if things run, well, then they're not long for Josh's wardrobe.

Anyway, Liz just mentioned that as it gets cooler outside the water gets cooler (logically). So I'll have to start paying attention to the water temperatures now.

Good to know.
