Notice my hat in this picture, I don't leave home without some kind of hat, sunglasses, and if it's over 80 degrees I have a cooling towel that I carry as well. Water is a given and make sure you eat regularly. If you tolerate alcohol, don't over do it. Don't over exert yourself and if you get tired rest. Don't stay up much beyond your normal bed time. Wear sunscreen! Most of all relax, pay attention to your triggers and have fun.
