6. Taking pleasure walks:[1]
One may not take pleasure walks on Erev Tisha B’av. [This applies even on Shabbos Erev Tisha B’av. If Tisha B’av falls on Shabbos and is pushed to Sunday, then one is to refrain from walks throughout the entire day, starting from Friday night.[2] However, when the date of the 9th of Av falls on Motzei Shabbos one may take pleasure walks on Friday night, the 8th of Av, and the restriction begins only from the morning.]
