I have been to the shops twice - last time was a week ago. I do not intend going back until at least the 21st as the next two weeks are to be when the city hits the peak of the virus. I live in an apt. with no balcony but I limit my walks to the twice a week when I take out the garbage & recycling - just add in a 20 minute walk around the neighbourhood.
