Talking to the neighbour of where I'm working in Wodonga today.
As a volunteer with the CFA and Albury based air water bombing squad he was off to Sydney this morning to join a cruise on the latest Royal Carribean Ship for a free 4 day voyage up and down the coast donated by the cruise company.
Apparently the Spectrum of the Seas built for cruises around Asia has not left Australian waters due to the virus problems and will be donating 4 cruises.
Some good news I think.
Good to see. Although I hate the seppo term 'first responders', I still prefer to call them Emergency services
