Currently staying in Bright VIC.
It's quiet.
Too quiet.
I can't wrap my head around it.
Normally the first weekend of school holidays the town is jam packed, families everywhere, shops full to the brim, you name it.
What's going on?
I assume it's the cost of living and people making an effort to save but looking at any news reporting over the past 3 months seems to imply strong demand for holidays. I remember one article even speaking of "revenge holidays" where people are taking holidays in spite of the cost of living.
Anyone out there in the Fediverse have any insights or just noticing the same?
