Except next door to me. My neighbours seem to be under the illusion there is a cone of silence over their place that keeps their arguments (and their TV at full volume) inside it.🤨
Wow. That’s one positive of the world’s enforced stay-at-home policy. Let’s hope more get reported, seriously studied, & considered for health-giving changes.
Great shot! I was thinking of going to Berlin Mitte to make some shots of the historical buildings there since there should be far less tourists around than normally but haven’t quite dared yet since I’m not sure if it would be okay at the moment. We are allowed to go for a walk but I would also have to travel by public transport to go there which doesn’t seem wise at this time.
I’d love to go into the city and see it empty, but I’m pretty sure it’s not allowed. We keep getting new rules about what is acceptable. Most of it seems like common sense, but apparently common sense is a misnomer!!
Isn’t the lack of traffic weird? We drove into town for the supermarket the other day and the only other vehicles on the road in 30 minutes were trucks. I’ve never felt so guilty.
It is weird, but — in Auckland anyway — really enjoyable. I can’t believe how much bad driving I’m still seeing though. In one day I saw one woman run a red light and another go straight through a roundabout without stopping. In both cases, other cars narrowly avoided being hit. So irresponsible !

Thanks Del. The water looks cleaner even after a few days of no pleasure boats out.

That’s quite the bridge Su. Our roads and highways are pretty quiet too.

It’s was so eerie; I walk that bridge often and normally the roar of traffic is deafening.

If it did, it spared a couple of crazy cyclists who were hogging the walking lane on the bridge and zoomed up behind me as I was taking this.

This sort of behaviour drives me absolutely crazy: do they not understand the meaning of Shared Pathways??????

Of course- they also believe that rules only apply to other people. 😡
