Corona Lockdown Gratitude🙏

#grateful for a peaceful day, catching up on sleep and on me; for writing a Blogpost for tomorrow; for seeing German swallows Thomas and Haakon walking past my apartment, flying back tomorrow; for a call from swallow Gabi in Germany, to check how things are going, she wanting to return to her apartment in Camps Bay; for a walk to Gibson’s to photograph the ice cream and Shake kiosk, seeing three nice Joburg boys devouring their Gibson’s Gourmet Burgers & Ribs, allowing me to photograph them, followed by Lance Cohen, who loved the burger he ordered, after having completed a 25 km walk 💙; for another walk to Camps Bay to catch the sunset; and for being happy, healthy and free. 🙏💙

Sadly there were overflowing green bins which I had to clean up 😱.

The Corona Virus Lockdown (Level 5), announced by our President Cyril Ramaphosa earlier to commence on 27 March 2020 and to continue until 16 April, subsequently extended to 30 April, lowered to Level 4 from 1 May, lowered to Level 3 from 1 June, lowered to Level 2 from 18 August, lowered to Level 1 from 21 September, and moved back to Adjusted Level 3 from 29 December,  extended to 15 February on 11 January 2021, extended but relaxed on 1 February, and relaxed back to Level 1 on 1 March 2021, moved back to Adjusted Level 2 on 31 May, moved back to level 3 on 16 June, and moved back to Adjusted Level 4 on 28 June, extended by two weeks on 11 July,  returned to Level 3 on 26 July, returned to Level 2 on 13 September, and returned to Level 1 on 1 October is an unprecedented event in my lifetime. I am posting my daily Facebook post to journal this Corona Lockdown Journey, perhaps to serve as material for a future Book.
