Well done, Melbourne !

Take a look at the COVID case graph of Victoria. It just keeps going down , down and down !


 

Now that, is impressive. Most of the cases in Victoria were concentrated in the capital city of Melbourne. But we knew all Victorians could see us through. It was tough, the past 6 weeks, made worse by us becoming the laughing stock of the nation. But all that matters is the result. And this is impressive indeed.

Here’s hoping we continue to keep the trend , and come out clean on the other side.

The Story of Fascism

Take one hour out of your day today. And watch this. Posting it here for posterity. And myself.

Tis the season.

The weather in Australia continues to surprise me. Its as if someone is closely monitoring the calendar. It’s the start of September, and presto ! winter is gone. The cold, harsh sub 10 degree nights have now changed to 17 degrees. Daytime tops 20. That can only mean one thing: spring is here. Warm days abound. Had to switch the heater to ac mode.

The change of seasons here is truly amazing. Looking forward to warmer days.

Milestones

 

The pandemic and lockdown have slowed things down. But time does flow. Its that time of the year again, time to lookback at those milestones.

Is it bad out there? Definitely.

But days like today give you things to reflect upon. And I dodged a bullet today.

I am grateful for my circumstances. Most grateful to the people in my family.
