Hope it stays that way for you and you don't get stuck there

Nor sure where you are coming from to enter Victoria, but if it is from Qld, be careful because the idiots running Qld shut the borders when someone coughs or sneezes & your chances of getting back is in real jeopardy.

SA set to close borders again.

Borders with NSW, ACT, Victoria, likely to close within days

South Australias Covid chiefs are meeting on Saturday and are expected to crack down on borders with NSW, ACT and Victoria amid rising fears about the Omicron variant.

Well I hope AP keeps the Qld borders closed.
At present I am immune deficient and although I am vaccinated, I dont want to share a spot in hospital with some positive Covid patient who believes they are entitled to travel to any state at their whim.
Anti Vaxxers are entitled to nothing.
This could have been fixed over a year ago if we had a federal govt that closed the international borders.

Haven't seen the Vic grandkids since April was looking forward driving up there from S.A. in Jan. The middle child in particular misses me dreadfully. But I suppose I should be grateful we were able to spend 3 days with them last Xmas and 3 days in April (between their lock downs). We didn't go anywhere, just visited with them and drove home quick. Still maybe things will have improved by Jan.

Just been over to Vic from SA, got back in at Bordertown yesterday without issue. A few people with non complying paperwork having issues getting in and being sent back to Kaniva & even Nhill for Covid tests.
