Day 3465 - The Easter Edition

Happy Easter!

Easter is quite an interesting time of year.  Whether you participate in the religious side or not, the Easter holidays in themselves are quite the topic of conversation.

Water cooler talk this year is how one can maximise their holiday potential, getting 10 days off and only giving up 3 vacation days.



I'm not sure about the other states, but with Easter falling right in the middle of the ACT school holidays, then having ANZAC Day in that same week, I think most of Canberra will be shut down next week. It may turn into a ghost town.  Well, in the burbs anyway.

Most people I know are racing off tonight, they get their 4 day weekend, take Tuesday, Wednesday off work, have their ANZAC holiday, take off Friday and then the final weekend before school, giving them a big ten day vacay.

I don't know what the weather is like where you are but it is glorious in Canberra and the nearby NSW South Coast right now.  Lovely days in the mid 20s means a lot of us are feeling really comfortable, calm and at peace.  Not too hot, not too cold, but just right.  (Thanks Goldilocks)

Which is how you should feel at Easter I suppose. Comfortable, calm, at peace and just right.

So for all of you out there taking advantage of the 10 days, please drive safely.  The roads are historically horrible at Easter.  Stay calm, give yourself extra time, don't race and just be at one with the traffic.

Don't forget the importance of ANZAC day in all this.  Some of the best ANZAC days can be spent in different locations visiting their memorials and supporting their locals who fought for our country.

I'll leave you with my view yesterday.

What are you doing this Easter?

Anyone heading off to maximise their holiday time?
