Very bad fires (again) around near where I grew up in western Victoria.......and where I'm living now......it's very very hot.
To see the flooding so bad up north is very strange......having also lived there for a few years, the rain comes down so quick and heavy.
All beautiful country......
Hats off to all the emergency services personnel.......they all do an amazing job.

They've all but taken his life from him for something he didn't do.
The thing that gets me.....the true killer or killers have never been brought to justice.
Also.....did anything happen to all the people involved in pretty much setting up Mr Hakamata for the crimes he didn't commit.

Posted in: End of Japan COVID curbs triggers surge in visitors to nearly 1 million in November See in context
So desperately want to visit.....have since all this began.
Travel ban has ruined alot of plans and visits that were to be had.
I am hearing that some hospitals are still very very overrun and over worked.
Makes me worried abit.....especially the article a few days ago of overworked school staff.....can't imagine what the staff at hospital are going through.

Wow.....they're 1 year old!!!!
Children can be mischievous and noisy.....but to do those things is just so wrong.
Hopefully it hasn't affected them to much......

Can't imagine the Anxiety and Stress everyone must be under.....
To be honest.....when Brisbane was named host in 2032 (not realising they'd even put in a bid for it).....I didn't feel much at all.
Everyone please Take Care and Stay Safe
