PHOTO THREAD.

[quietthinker]

So, as most of you know here in Victoria we are totally lockdown. Can't travel more than 5ks from home. Shopping only one person... One hour... And only supermarkets open. So I have to resort to doing my own version of photo bombing someone else's holiday. In this case friends of mine are currently touring the Lake Wanaka area of NZs south island. Queenstown, Te Anau, Milford. So jealous... Here's some samples of their travels.View attachment 10584 View attachment 10585 View attachment 10586 View attachment 10587 View attachment 10588 View attachment 10589

Even with the blight of sin God's creation is still wonderful. Lovely!

I wonder, do you have heated hand grips and heated gloves? Must get quite cold riding in Canada, it gets cold riding in Australia too, to the result of numb fingers lolz, 80km/h into the wind, exaggerates the windchill quite a bit.

Smoke travels a long way, hopefully it doesn't circumnavigate the globe again, like what happened with the smoke from the Australian Bushfires.

Remember the Japanese balloon bombs which came to the west coast of North America in WW2: the wind blows a long way...
