Ghost towns

I been looking on webcams around the world and here, Milan, Barcelona, etc.

You can see how lockdown is effecting these places.

Not sure if anyone else has been using this facility.

Re: Ghost towns

Didn't think about doing that, good idea to pass time, Marciniak. Could do Google Earth street view too, though that isn't live.

Re: Ghost towns

It's like a seven day weekend here where I live. Lots of people walking on the common. Not enough and not too close to make it a health hazard though.

Try the London Underground in the early morning rush hour. Ludicrous!

Re: Ghost towns

It were really WebCams around the world, where we can see how other countries cope, watching people carry on day to day under Cover 19 restrictions..

See the Policing, how people distance themselves... and those that don't.

Yes EZ rider, pity there is no Webcam there, as I am sure it be an eye opener

Perhaps I should have titled this thread " WebCams around the world "

Re: Ghost towns

Out in the countryside the roads are quieter, it is lovely to hear birdsong that isn't spoiled by human noise....
