So in 30 min I'll be leaving the office and by 12:00 we'll be on the road!
Those of you who still need to keep your noses to the grindstone -enjoy!
Those travelling - be safe!
I'll take a pic here and there and post it here.

Enjoy the crowds. We took our annual leave last month. No crowds, no traffic.
