at 15mm, 1/160 f/7.1, ISO 160, hand held. Hong Kong, Hong Kong.

vi racconto la mia quarantena; dopo 5 ore di controlli all'aeroporto finalmente vengo prelevato ed accompagnato al mio covid hotel, naturalmente a mie spese per 14 giorni. Se fossi stato inglese o proveniente da un paese ad alto rischio sarebbero stati 21 giorni e se avessi voluto fare la quarantena a spese dello stato sarei stato portato a Penny Bay, che mi dicono essere poco meno di una prigione. Durante questo periodo sono stato rinchiuso in una bella stanza al decimo piano senza mai uscire, aprire finestre (avevano tolto la maniglia e avvitate delle staffe di bloccaggio) con aria condizionata e aspiratore del bagno sempre accesi e senza possibilità di regolarli o spegnerli. Tre volte al giorno potevo aprire la porta della camera senza mai uscire per prendere colazione, pranzo e cena che trovavo su un tavolino. Ogni tre giorni avevo un tampone di controllo; mi dovevo mettere alla porta seduto all'interno della camera, il medico mi faceva il prelievo e alle sue spalle una cosa incredibile: un'altra persona con un grosso tubo che soffiava aria per spingere, e tenere all'interno, quella della mia camera...per due volte mi ha chiamato il ministero della salute per sapere i motivi del mio viaggio, da dove ero partito e chiedere se conoscessi 2 persone che erano risultate positive ai controlli e come me partite da Francoforte, seppur in tempi diversi. Per ingannare il tempo ho letto chili di libri e alle ore 18 mi mettevo con il cannocchiale alla finestra per vedere mio figlio, in strada 10 piani più sotto, che tornava dal lavoro e scambiarci un saluto prima dell'abbraccio tanto agognato . Per farci coraggio mia moglie teneva il conto dei giorni con i post it alla finestra e scambiava saluti con altri ospiti in quarantena nei grattacieli difronte, sempre con i post it. Con queste rigidissime misure in quel periodo i contagi erano 2 su >8,000.000 di abitanti; ora leggo sui giornali ancora liberi di scrivere che sono 80.000 (quelli dichiarati). L'aumento dei contagi è avvenuto in corrispondenza dei festeggiamenti del capodanno cinese. Morale della favola: non lamentiamoci per le nostre restrizioni e grazie alle vaccinazioni che ci hanno protetto

The photo is certainly beautiful, but the proof that you and your wife have supported was heroic.

Hello Carlmon, I was there from November 1 to December 30, 2021, it was a difficult and challenging journey in every sense between bureaucracies, ours and them, unexpected events of all kinds (flight changes communicated the day before and consequent changes of tampons, stopovers in Bangkok for crew change and 17 hours of flight on a huge semi-empty plane and all sorts of online health formats to be filled in).... thanks for the visit and comment

I'm sorry for your trip so
difficultwe hope for a better
futureif I think that until 4 years ago I did up to 50 intercontinental flights a year... now it would be impossible. by chance, I changed jobs a year before covid

Carlmon, the difficulties began before leaving with the swabs that had to be made in certified structures and recognized by Prpc, apps to download and complicated formats to fill in, validity of the different swabs for the countries of departure, transit and destination as well as the uncertainty of receiving the outcome in good time. The checks were absurd: in Frankfurt they did the drug test at my old Canon and at Hk 5 hours of checks and questions, as well as for the return. At Hk seeing the airport empty was sad but with only two airlines (Cathai and Lufthansa) flying it was inevitable. Prices doubled and the Airbus 350 was half empty.... I learned that Hk lacks drivers because of the long quarantines they have to do every time they set foot there.
I hope you can return soon to fly, maybe to Hk, with me on board. Good we
