Stavros & Alicia came down to get Christopher's car. 

...................... 

Dreaming happy memories 
of
Tsuchiyu Onsen
in 
Fukushima. 

Maybe I need to revisit there and chill a little .... 

--------------------------------------

#東北中央自動車道 #相馬福島道路 の伊達桑折IC〜桑折JCT 開通
東北新幹線を跨ぐ高架橋はとても高い❗️
相馬福島道路、待望の今年度内全線開通まで、あと１区間です。

#Tohoku Central Expressway #Soma Fukushima road date kuwaraki IC ~ Kuwataki Jct opening
The High Bridge that darken the tohoku shinkansen is so expensive ❗️
Soma Fukushima road, 1 more sections until the long-awaited line of the year.

----------------------------------

I also started cleaning out the garage area. 
So many black bags of garbage went into the dumpster ! 

Including these shoes which I bought in Sendai City. 
I wore them in three different countries; they walked countless miles. 

Timberland is a great shoe brand.

............... 

There was no Christmas in July here due to the Corona Virus. 

Nothing happy to celebrate whatsoever. 

The World

COVID-19 is a pandemic

including Australia. 

In 1919 acclaimed children's book author and illustrator May Gibbs 

drew this for a public health campaign for the Spanish influenza ( flu )

pandemic where nearly 15, 000 Australians died.

Another lovely Winter's Day. 
Nice to be out 'n about. 

Went to the butcher's shop beside the Fish Factory. 
It is building up a deli business. 
Got some Maleny yoghurt - first time to try. 

Another first time to try is pickled walnuts. 

Certainly not cheap in price but very delicious indeed .... ! 

I also went to Ross Evans Garden Centre near my house. 
I bought one plant, the SNOW WHITE flowers and planted it. 
Contrasts with the red, methinks. 

Garzon

G A R Z O N

Closed - Down. 
That's the way it is .... 

And just near the defunct Garzon
is 
U S U I   Department Store. 

The two photos below are on the banners outside ...

Dec flew in from Sydney last night.
The first time that I have ever seen him with a beard ! 

It was the first day that the border was re-opened
so he could make the flight.

Saturday arvo we went for a walk down to Oxford St
It was a lovely Winter's day in BrizVegas.
