Blossoms for Italy and Spain (lockdown)

            Dear friends,
my heart is going out to ALL people in  different places worldwide who are endangered or hit by coronavirus pandemic COVID-19

Millions of Europeans were preparing to be confined to their homes to counter an explosion in coronavirus infections after  Spain followed Italy by putting the whole country in lockdown.
Spain put its 47 million inhabitants under partial lockdown on Saturday as part of a 15-day state of emergency to combat the coronavirus epidemic in Europe’s second worst-affected country by the disease after Italy
A required decision to avoid  the spread of this  pandemic. 

 Never give up: From the southern cities of Salerno and Naples, and the Sicilian capital Palermo to Turin in the north, residents of apartment buildings and tower blocks are continuing to sing or play instruments, or to offer DJ sets, from their balconies in a trend that is spreading from Italy across Europe to Spain and even to Sweden :-).

BE STRONG dear friends  in Spain and Italy. Living under lockdown and unbelievable circumstances  is awful...
You are not alone...We think of you.

  We're all in the same boat-trying to 
slow the spread of this horrible pandemic

Serious restrictions on public life go into effect across Germany-  like in so many countries- too.. 
All  states have closed schools, cinemas, public swimming pools and other culture and leisure facilities. The limitations will impact travel
also.
Today, Germany introduced border controls with Austria, Denmark, France, Luxembourg and Switzerland in a bid to stem the coronavirus outbreak. 

Take care everyone, wherever you are...
