Yay! I have walked again today with my friend Grace and our other Filipina friend. I walked to the park where my other Filipina friend lives. She only lives 20 minutes away from me near our city park. From there, we 3 walked together to the Rhine river where we usually took a walk. We have walked for more than 6 kilometers. Walking is a bit weird now because we were all wearing face masks and did social distancing. Every time we saw people coming our way, we went to the other side of the path. It was relaxing at the Rhine river as we took a pause and sat on the bench facing the river where some of the cargo boats passed by. The cargo boats were either going to or coming from the Netherlands. We were having a lot of fun taking photos and talking to each other. Have you walked with your friends again but with social distancing and face mask? I hope you have a nice Tuesday. I have. Thanks for reading. The photo was taken during our walk today.

so glad you got to walk - my issue with the mask is it fogs my glasses, I keep having to adjust it while walking

Just the same with me @DocAndersen. It is annoying, isn´t it? Thank you.

Yep my friend and I went on a few hikes together. We didn’t wear masks but we did social distance. The flowers are beautiful and I’m glad you got to get out for a nice walk.

We have been inside with no visitors allowed. Our parks are closed and we only communicate by phone. A nice walk with friends sounds good.I'm glad you have the privilege.
