My thermometer is at the head where it should be. Haha I was just thinking that since the water boils at around 120 degrees, so why can't the vapour be more 100 degrees. But I think that it has to be 100 degrees as that how a proper distillation should work. Thanks guys :)

Have a look at this Wiki page:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distillation
 it has a nice diagram.
