COVID-19 has hit lockdown phase here in WA. Since resigning from our jobs, we've been back in the bus taking a well earned break and travelling as much as we can within the confines of school. Last month we were offered a property where we can park the bus and make use of the little old house that's just been renovated.

So here we are now in lockdown celebrating Lola's sweet 16 and my big Five-0 birthdays. My thoughtful sister has managed to get our closest loved ones back in Victoria on a Facebook video to sing happy birthday to us both.

To be completely honest, lockdown hasn't had too much an impact on us, or me in particular. Not a very social being, the biggest let down has been our love of dining out. And yes toward the end, losing the freedom to jump in the car and go for a site seeing or find a nice little country pub has started to grate. But lucky we are in WA and lockdown is soon to be over and our freedoms gradually return.
