A trip to the farm down south is nice to imagine so we are making plans to go to the farm of a niece. It will be 3 hours of travel with no traffic on the highway. I have asked around about checkpoints and there are none. Maybe we can go this coming weekend if it will not rain.

@LadyDuck it would be a respite from the boring home. But I am still awaiting for the decision.

Yes, those are stray monkeys foraging for food. The trip still a plan because it would depend on the companions.

@thelme55 we would go there with the sister of my wife and her family. If they would not agree then we would not be going anymore.

i think that sounds like a great time, we are still in phase 1, so weekend travel is a no-no for a few more days.

Traveling was tested by a friend so it is allowed.

@DocAndersen that's exciting. But traveling is still intimidating.

Sounds like a plan. And how about plus traffic, how many hours to get there? Traffic is back.

When there is traffic on the highway you can add 1 hour to the duration of the trip.

Yes, it is quite big at more than 6 hectares. The view of the mountain is great with fresh air too.

Thank you for the nice thoughts. It looks like I am not getting the approval of our companions. They feel scared of the risk.

@vilma143 the horses there are for racing so they are the big horses called thoroughbred. The farm of my niece was actually a ranch when she bought it.
