I hope everyone is staying calm through these trying times. Breathe in, hug your loved ones, go for a ride, and watch below (volume on) a few times, Viva Italia...
Appreciate that posts to this section should be “light and fun”, but we live in unprecedented times.
I have just watched the world news this morning and was absolutely astonished by the arrogance, ignorance or just plain stupidity of those on Bondi beach, Spring breakers and even those going to the parks in the UK.
The younger generation may not be as susceptible to the virus but are more than capable of spreading it to the older and more vulnerable members of the community.
My parents are sadly no longer with us, but would it not be a tragic thing to cause the death of a parent or grandparent by ones I’m all right jack attitude.

Ugh. The best line I’ve seen so far was... “Our parents and grandparents went to fight wars, we’re simply being asked to sit on the couch.” I’m keeping busy, and luckily we can still get out and ride here, though most things are closed.Just been informed another 15 days lockdown.
Dern. Just wrote a "report from Delaware" and guess I missed pressing the post reply button!
Same here yesterday. Santa Monica was smart enough to close the pier, so everyone came here. Traffic was dead stopped, beaches were crowded. I just read that police helicopters were flown over the beaches telling people the beaches were closed. No one listened. The State Parks here were even worse I’ve read.we had an influx of people from those states who decided to take a "vacation" trip to the beach.
Robert, my friends in Italy say that the totals are a little deceptive there as they are including all deaths, not just those related to COVID-19. Do you know if that is true?800 deaths on Saturday in Italy, nearly 400 yesterday in Spain.
Need I say more, you reap what you sow.
Stay safe my friends.

Many French, German, Italians and British have holiday homes here in Menorca, but due to travel restrictions cannot get here. Even the locals that have summer residences in my village have to stay in their primary homes, so thankfully at the moment there are only a few cases of the virus on the island.I live at a ski area in Quebec. Everybody that owns a ski chalet has come here for refuge. Schools are off and I can work from home, what the heck lets go to the cottage. The problem is they are all going home to Ottawa or Toronto etc. for a few days here and there and returning up here potentially infected. I can't really blame them but stay put once you're here for every ones sake.
I’ve seen much behaviour over the last few days that was baffling. There are so many that just don’t understand the “Dick and Jane” scenarios. Some of my teenage daughters friends where posting pictures of 5 of themselves embracing while laughing in our spring weather.Appreciate that posts to this section should be “light and fun”, but we live in unprecedented times.
