Today, NZ dropped to Alert Level 3. Not too much difference form level 4, except now we can get take-away coffee and food. That's fine if you live in an area offering these services. For me, it was wonderful to be able to drive locally, then walk. I've been able to ride my bike to the river, but today, I felt comfortable driving then walking. I didn't see a sole. It was great. I'm not used to having a husband at home 24/7.
From your description, we have been at level 3 right along and are winning the battle. (I am talking strictly Maine) I am glad you can drive though I hope you don't give up bicycling all together because of such good exercise.
Such a lovely photo. I have been watching New Zealand closely in all this, and admiring your journey. Dropping to alert level 3 is fabulous. I hope the journey down through the levels is slow and steady and safe for you all. Enjoy your new freedom :)
Your restrictions have been tighter than ours. It seems that we've been at an equivalent to your level 3 pretty much all along. As of yesterday we're now allowed to have groups of up to 10 people as long as we maintain social distancing.
amazing how different it is all over the world. Friday we go to level 4 which means that people over 60 are still not allowed out, except for getting food or meds! Alcohol will still be banned but cigarettes will be sold again .... aaargh!
