If traveling in Australia at the moment please be aware of the huge bushfires in Victoria, Tasmania, NSW and the ACT. The Victorian fires which have been blazing for 18 days have now burned out a total area of about 140.000 hectars of National Parks and State Forests. Please avoid traveling in the affected areas so as to keep roads clear for our Fire Fighters and Emergency vehicles. many of the roads are closed to traffic in any case. These fires are the worst since 1939.
