Masks on

Earlier this week I noticed all these people waiting outside one of the banks in town, happy to see they are all wearing masks. Businesses here are pretty picky with people wearing them when they are inside their premises. It's a good thing really.

Linking up with Skywatch Friday.

It's good that the people are following the protocol. We still wear our masks when we are on the bus or in a store. More people do the same too.

It's good to see plenty still mask wearing..although it's surprising how many forget to cover their nose as well!..then you have those Chin hammocks!!

I remember being in a bank a few months back and remarking on how people would have reacted two years ago to walking into a bank with a bandanna covering the mouth and nose.

Welcome to the rest of the western world - you will be seeing discarded madks joining the litter on your streets and beaches next. There is something truly obnoxious about them as litter.

I am uneasy without a mask and they are the rule here just now. I recall nice rhodadendums when on holiday in N Z, years ago. Hadnt noticed them before that. Was looking with new eyes..

Here it changed. Some wear none. Are they vaccinated? Who knows, and even if, they still can spread.

Distance - turning your head away.

Even in some stores unmasked people are allowed. Crazy times.
At school young kids wearing masks on their chins, playing in the yard side by side.
This will still take a while, I´m afraid...

Masks make you feel safer and they must help in lessening the spread, espeically when everyone wears them and wears them properly. Hope the virus spread stops quickly

Here in the netherlands masks are just not necessary anymore as is the distance of 1.5 m.

Just heard yesterday that LA is going to start requiring proof of vaccination for indoor gatherings.

Greetings and Salutations! I walked into a neighborhood bank recently and had to remove my mask before walking into the building. I am a regular and was still required to do this. The bank manager said it was the company protocol. Whatever.

Auckland Metropolis Museum

In amongt the modern new highrise buildings in Auckland City is this smaller vintage building that is currently for sale (I'd buy it if I had the money).   My research found that:  "It was designed by English-born architect Charles Towle and erected in the early 1930s as the Church of Christ, Scientist, the building's Graeco-Roman facade has towering columns that frame its impressive entranceway, with three ornate timber doors decorated with leadlight inserts providing access to the expansive foyer. Arched ceilings dominate the former congregational high stud space beyond the foyer and numerous picturesque windows provide a light, airy feel and an ambience many office buildings lack. The building housed congregational and Sunday school services for 70 years until it was sold and converted into office space in 2003. A significant refurbishment was also carried out with care taken to ensure that the building's distinctive character remained intact. Special architectural ...

Family

  Photo taken Spring 2024 in Auckland We have been invited to a family reunion in June 2026 which will be held in Auckland so I'm looking forward to catching up with relatives that I haven't seen in over 10 years.  This week we have: Had a good chat with a friend who has also adopted a rescue dog - must arrange a play date. I've bought some non alcoholic liqueurs to mix up for mocktails which have been very nice as I don't really drink. We had a massive wind storm 2 days ago, we were ok but a good friend who lives 20 minutes away had a bolt of lightning strike her house, the result was a blown up power box inside and part of her kitchen got burned, she had to call out the fire brigade to put it out. And I have a question for you; when you add your blog post to a blog meme or a blog link up, do you expect the owner of that blog to at least come back and comment on the other blogs that have linked up to it including yours even if it's only occasionally?  I actually th...

Hail

Image
  Spring is throwing out some strange weather right now. We don't get snow where we live but it is visible on some of the mountains around us over Winter. Last week around 4.30am we had a very loud thunderstorm with hail. It wasn't until an hour or so later my daughter said this is what she saw out on our deck.  Clumps of hail all over the deck and on her hand. Apparently various other suburbs around town got it too.
