I picked the island in Australia. The cooler temperatures doesn't bother me, I'd prefer it to the super hot and the miserable 90 degree nights. Thirty degrees sounds wonderful in comparison.

Death Valley by far. Macquarie Island is one of the worst climates in the world.

You do realise it is winter in the southern hemisphere.

None of them. If those are the only options I prefer to stay in my house.

Death Valley because it's summer. Any time between Sept. 1 and May 31 I would pick Macquarie based on those temperatures.

I'll reluctantly choose option B because it won't kill me.

Nope, I will make your house 35*C with humidity being 60 percent.

Yeah, but it's summer here. I wouldn't waste a summer weekend in the cold. Visiting Death Valley right now would be much less of a shock than visiting MacQuarie Island.
