Crossing a quiet Memorial Avenue on Good Friday 2020

10 April 2020

We went for a morning walk in our neighbourhood on Good Friday 2020. We found that Memorial Avenue was even more quiet than the previous 2 weeks of lockdown. Our daughter managed to ride her scooter on the road in front of Burnside High for a while before we spotted a lonely car in the distance.
