Hi guys, Hope you all are doing good. I am doing good too. Since few days the traffic has increased much in my city as the festival season has started. In few days, diwali festival will arrive so people are busy in shopping. The road side hawkers have come up with different products at low price. The products like clothes, shoes, handbags etc. Especially on weekends, we can see many hawkers sitting in different areas across the city and lot of people doing shopping from them. How is it at your end? Share your thoughts about it. Have a good day. Take care!!!

Wow the traffic looks horrible! That is one reason we moved to the country!! Just normal covid times going on here. I'll be super glad when it is all over or at least more under control.

Good point. It's called rush hour because everyone is in hurry at sane time

Wow, so hectic! Quiet, nothing till Halloween. Though Hawaii reached herd immunity to 70% innoculated, officials are cautious about lifting restrictions.
