Hard to believe but not only November has gone by but we are almost at the end of December as I write this post.
Let's rewind to the beginning of November. Melbourne has still been in lockdown. We recognize that the end of it is coming as the vaccination rates increase and head towards 90% fully vaccinated. At this time, only the vaccinated have access to some services and retail.
The highlight of the month was Sydney's school camp (Hartzer) that finally took place. She spent three weeks in Beechworth (VIC) with her class. There she a chance to learn while away from the regular school operations, become more independent etc. The camp got changed, from NSW to VIC and from 4 week to 3 weeks as a consequence of the ongoing COVID pandemic. Christy, Coco and Thomas visited her on the second weekend. We drove up on Fri night and stayed on a farm with the dog. Sat and Sunday we had perfect weather and visited Sydney. It was great for all of us.
Some of the pictures from the weekend as well as pictures taken and published by teachers can be found below

Of course, the drone had to come along. I took some shots from our Sunday excursion to the Woolshed Falls. (Still not stabilized ... but the flick shows the how nice the place is.)
