Day 0

Day 0 of the MIQ challenge. Back from Utah early this morning and now we are doing the mandatory 14 days managed isolation in the Crown Plaza, downtown Auckland. The challenge will be surviving this lockdown with minimal escape outside of the room, just an hour of exercise per day, and covid tests on day 0, 3, and 12. A challenge too, to take a different photo on each of those 14 days !
Overall, it is still a small price to pay for the wonderful months we had in Utah to spend with the family, the adventures we had, and to get fully vaccinated. I am grateful for everything the Utah family did for us particularly in the initial days to keep us safe and healthy. So good to get out in the mountains biking and hiking – in fact so busy towards the end that Blip was completely overlooked. I will aim to post on each of the next 14 days!
