Lockdown Journal: Day 38 (Walking Thoughts)

Read all my lockdown journal posts.

It’s Day 38 of the South African lockdown, and the third day of Lockdown Level 4. I took my second Level 4 walk through Melville this morning (here’s my account of the first one) and spent a lot of time thinking as I walked.

Lockdown Journal: Day 36 (Outside in Melville)

Read all my lockdown journal posts.

It’s Day 36 of the South African lockdown – the first day of lockdown Level 4. It’s May Day and we went OUTSIDE.

As of today, South Africans are allowed to go outside for exercise between 6 and 9 a.m. daily. Initially I wasn’t super excited about this rule, as you may have read yesterday. It’s unnecessarily restrictive, and the timing is poorly thought out as the sun rises late in South Africa at this time of year.
