Coronavirus Lockdown Day 7

Well that’s a week down and quite surprised how fast and smoothly it’s passed, it remains to be seen how much longer we will be lockdowned. The glorious Autumn weather is a great help, one wonders how we will all manage when all forced inside!
Varnished the companionway boards yesterday and will apply another coat today..

Coronavirus Lockdown Day 6

Day 6 has dawned a beautiful cloudless day, the doors are wide open and a warm sun beams down unaware that the world has changed.
It is so quiet these days, so silent that sometimes it’s almost deafening, then suddenly the melodic song of a Tui starts up soon followed by the echo of another across the road. Our guava trees fruit is starting to ripen and with it the feathery rustle of wings marks the arrival of the Native Pigeons, they are a heavy bird and rather ungainly, crash into the trees, the branches bending until equilibrium is found.

Coronavirus Lockdown Day 5

Well 5 days down and who knows how any more to endure?
How long before we can again enjoy our freedom?
Until then all we have is memories and photos.....
