And the local newspaper supplements, such as 'Escape' pictured above tease people about the great adventures they will be able to have overseas when Australia's international border is open once again (the closure was just extended another 3 months taking it up to July now), or the great holidays that they can plan interstate (if you are willing to gamble your money on the state borders not snapping shut within 24 hours of a potential Covid outbreak).

It's not like I've never wanted to travel overseas as an adult, it's just that I never found the time or money to do it in my past.
Travel Bubbles ... Keep on Popping?I love hitting the road in my car though and traveling across my own country seeing places that I never got to see in my past.
But now even trying to plan a trip out of my own Australian state of Queensland seems too much of a financial gamble.
And you never know how far away you can get until another state that you need to pass through closes their border forcing you into a 14-day hotel quarantine at $400 a day of your own money.
Now a day trip to the beach in my own home-state seems like a great life adventure:-)
